Might have to change my Vancouver selection to Demko. After that playoff debut and 43 saves in a 2-1 win... they might decide not to sign Markstrom. Especially if they can only protect one goalie.
Markstrom to Detroit or Buffalo or Calgary

So far the consensus is that the Canucks re-sign Markstrom. Interesting.

I think the expansion rules are going to create an extra level of goalie movement. I look forward to trying to figure out this challenge put forward by Pengwin (just not tonight on this little screen LOL).

Axe and I were the only ones who actually had MTL acquiring a goalie, but no one put Allen there.

(No I don't have a hockey problem...)
I think there's still a high chance that Allen gets traded again before the next NHL season begins. I can't see Montreal committing $15M of an $81M cap to goalies.

"Cleavage is like the sun. You can look, but dont stare.. Unless you're wearing sunglasses."
Good move both sides, I think.
Especially for STL... who clears cap space to entertain re-signing Pietro.
They were hosed to pull of AP before... but if Tank goes LTIR and with Allen gone... may-be!
Husso has four seasons in the AHL now.
Next year is a good year to find out... competition could put some pressure on Binnington to sign for job security!

Time to throw my two cents in.
ANA G1: Gibson (2026+)
ANA G2: Miller – one more year. If not they pick up the crumbs and sign Hutton
ARI G1: Kuemper (2022)
ARI G2: Raanta (2021) - I can see an argument to be made in moving one of these two and rolling the dice on a cheap back up - Prosvetov
BOS G1: Rask (2021)
BOS G2: Halak (2021)
BUF G1: Markstrom – they buy out Hutton & continue to swing big.
BUF G2: Ullmark
CGY G1: Holtby - really want stability in net and pay the price
CGY G2: Rittich
CAR G1: Mrazek (2021)
CAR G2: Reimer (2021)
CHI G1: Crawford
CHI G2: Subban (2020 arb.RFA - though I see him staying at low-number)
CBJ G1a: Merzlikins (2022)
CBJ G1b: Talbot
COL G1: Grubauer (2021)
COL G2: Francouz (2022)
DAL G1: Bishop (2023)
DAL G2: Dell
DET G1: Bernier (2021)
DET G2: Georgiev - seems like the type of move Yzerman would make
EDM G1: F Andersen
EDM G2: M. Smith
FLA G1: Bobrovsky (2026+)
FLA G2: Dreidger (2021)
LA G1: Quick (2023)
LA G2: Peterson (2022)
MIN G1: Stalock (2022)
MIN G2: Dubnyk – great buy low candidate. If personal issues resolved – great bounce-back candidate in pools

NAS G1a: Rinne (2021)

NJD G1: Blackwood (RFA)

NYI G1: Varlamov (2023)
NYI G2: Sorokin (2022 RFA)
NYR G1: Shesterkin (2021 RFA)
NYR G2: Lundqvist (I think they need to loyalty re-sign him for fans/franchise)
OTT G1a: Nilsson (2021)
OTT G1b: Hogberg (2021 RFA)
PHI G1: Hart (2021 RFA)
PHI G2: Elliott – great mentor. 1yr
PIT G1: Jarry – Pitt choses right
PIT G2: DeSmith – only reason he wasn’t the back up in 19/20 was $$
SJ G1: Jones
SJ G2: Murray – such a great fit. Comes at a decent cost.
STL G1: Binnington (2021)
STL G2: Khudobin – best back up in the game.
TB G1: Vas (2026+
TB G2: McE (2021)
TOR G1: Korpisalo – really can see Tor using an opportunity to open cap space next season by moving Fred-Ex - Lehner (give term) & Murray (Dubas Connections from jr.) I also gave consideration for. But went bold.
TOR G2: J.Campbell (2022)
VAN G1: : Demko (2021 arb.RFA)
VAN G2: Griess – sign a vet to support Demko and say goodbye to Markstrom
VGK G1: Fleury – can’t move him. can’t afford 2 high priced G’s
VGK G2: Brossoit – sign a serviceable cheap back up
WAS G1: Samsonov (2021 RFA)
WAS G2: Copley – such a cheap tandem for a team needing cap space
WPG G1: Hellebuyck (2024)
WPG G2: Koskinen – can take load off Helle
Follow me on twitter: @doylelb4
Still figuring some pieces out...for instance I think Edmonton gets one of the big name goalies, but that means they move Koskinen for a cheaper goalie. Who that is....I dont know
