People just have to that whole thing out of the equation....its an outlier among everything we know about hockey trades. It was one last desperate attempt to recreate what happened a couple years previous that led to ultimate success.

That being said, buyers really can set the price at times, but 35 YO G's have a limit simply because of the window they are good for. Markstrom will probably be OK for the rest of his deal and well worth it if he repeats this past season.

I can see TF giving up their 1st as part of something bigger....cause thats what teams who think they can get there do....and NJ certainly is at that point now.

Maybe he covets someone more....but either way, he will be paying heavy for what he is after.
