Gustavson in Minnesota for one. He’s off to a great start but was considered a trade candidate this past offseason. Blackwood’s name has also been out there. Jarry could be had for probably next to nothing. Gibson probably available too once he gets back.

Gus was only a candidate if Wallstedt blew the doors off in camp/preseason. I don't think the Wild have any interest in trying to go with a Wallstedt & Fleury tandem if they're trying to be a contender this year though.
Blackwood I don't think can be trusted.
Jarry is terrible.
Gibson has been pretty medoicre (and often injured) the last couple seasons.
If Gus was an option he's probably a better one to a team than Vladar, but I think Vladar's a better option than the rest.
