According to Seravalli, Saros is off the market. Good for the Flames if Markstrom is moved before the deadline.

Yeah, Fitz just lost a whole lot of leverage if he was telling Conroy he will go elese where to pick up that goalie.

Well it's good to know that NJ still has interest in a goalie. I thought they may have thrown in the towel on the season.

Hook those ESPN trades into my veins haha.

Wow.

Then dangle Hanifin to TB and see what they'll do to try and save one of the last real contending window seasons for Stammer and Hedman (34 and 33).

The Devils are 5 points behind the Flyers for 3rd in the division with a game in hand so they are in the same spot as the Flames. The thing is that for the first time in a long time they are pretty much healthy aside for Hamilton. Just need a goalie.

That being said I think a Markstrom trade is more likely to happen in the off-season.

The reason Hanifin hasn't signed has nothing to do with money. Throwing an extra million a year isn't going to change his mind, it is a desire to go play back south of the border.

Fine. $8.5 and a blue light lamp.

Perhaps, but I'd be surprised if it was with the Devils. This is a team that in recent years has been burned by sharp declines of goaltenders in their mid-30s: Schneider, Bernier, Crawford. Will they go to that well again? Much easier to do mid-season when the player is performing exceptionally well and you know you can just plug him in. Season over season, it's a lot harder to pin down goalies.

I think both sides are probably trying to evaluate what happens in the off-season
- For NJ does the price go down because it's one less season of retention, and the lack of the trade deadline pinch point?
- For Calgary does the price go up because there are potentially more suitors with more cap space to deploy? For instance does Philly enter the fray. Or is the price less because the lack of trade deadline leverage.
- And for Calgary, as Bingo has noted, is there motivation to move Markstrom to ensure a top 10 pick next year. (which might happen anyways just because the blueline absent Hanifin and Tanev will be god awful)

I just can't believe NJ is choosing not to address this. Obviously I say that not knowing the offers on each side but they should be in their contention window, and capitalizing on some of the cheaper entry level deals they have on key players. Allowing the lack of netminding to undermine that would frustrate me insanely if I was a Devils' fan when it is so clear that it is the very thing that is holding the team back.

Add either of these two suggestions to the ESPN value for Tanev and Markstrom and we are laughing. I'll use Tampa for the example down below as the double up on Jersey just seems too large for them to stomach, but I think I prefer that return. Total returns this year if executed:

Out:
Markstrom (25%)
Hanifin
Tanev (50%)
Lindholm

In:
Kuzmenko
Mercer
Holtz
Lundqvist
Bzrustewicz
Howard
Jurmo
Perbix
1st Van
1st TB
1st Dallas
2nd TB
2nd Dallas
4th Van (Conditional 3rd)


Looking at that, we should all be worshipping Conroy if he gets this done. I'd be happy to see it even without the 2nds added lol. Frankly, listing this at outset of the season would have me laughing a bit in incredulity.
