If the Flames fall back to where some believe they "should" be I'd love a Vladar and Georgiev swap with a couple higher draft picks coming our way.

Hasn’t Georgiev been at the top of the league in starts over the past two years?
No question he’s struggling and it is an issue for the Avalanche but might want to consider, league wide, what the Avalanche’s options are. Minnesota has three goaltenders. Jarry’s fallen out of favour in Pittsburgh. Gibson’s name has seemingly been out there for a while. All more proven than Dan Vladar. Yes, they all have their warts but so does Vladar.
Also, what’s the bigger issue for the Avalanche? Is it goaltending, or the fact they’ve got $13M on the sidelines. Bear in mind Georgie’s has played well for them in the past. If their belief in him is gone, I would be a bit surprised they haven’t addressed it already.
