It's more like a collection of 1989 O-Pee-Chee baseball cards... very little real value, but a lot of volume (roster commitment) You're other farm (non-goalie) prospects are decent. I'm not sure what's going on with your goalie valuations, but Jarry is the closest thing you have to a blue-chip prospect. You need to re-evaluate this plan and re-evaluate how you're evaluating goalies.

    Sorry for the harshness but someone's gotta be honest
    Yah, I was trying to say this...but in a nicer way. As in, good trade for Jarry.....but re-evaluate your strategy re: collection prospect goalies

    Ya the reason im trippin out about goalies is we have a 3 start minimum per week and if u dont achieve it you can lose your 1st rnd pick, which is quite detrimental to a rebuilding team...lol

    I don't particularly like this trade as much as most it seems. I'm always leery of prospect goalies where I see svech as a productive fantasy forward (relatively soon) with really good upside. I guess there's a solid chance jarri doesn't get a starter job for years, if ever.

    I'll second that I don't like the strategy of loading up on prospect goalies for what it's worth. From a numbers perspective there are 30 nhl starting positions (45 if you want to be really generous and say half the teams split starts, which they don't but let's be generous) vs 12 starting forward positions per team x 30 teams which is 360 starting forward spots. It's easy to be a really good goalie and not get an opportunity. Very different for really good forwards. You're going to strike out on too many prospect goalies and then there's ones that will be bad to average starters. Too many strikeouts and not enough home runs.

    Edit: *31 teams, how could I forget about vegas...

    Now this adds at least 1 reason to carry a couple fringe goalies when you don't have one. the problem is that you have way too many on the roster + farm. If you need fringe guys for starts, get a backup and the #3 guy from the same team, at least. A big issue is that you have a bunch of guys who are backups, tandem goalies at best, and from different teams. Jarry is likely your most talented goalie, or close to it. And almost half are free agents of some sort.

    Under contract:
    Kinkaid - 28, on NJ
    Jarry - 23, on PIT
    A.Nilsson - 28, on VAN
    Forsberg - 25, on CHI
    J.Campbell - 26, on LA

    Prospect:
    L.Soderstrom - 21, in the SHL (rights NYI)

    FA's:
    Bernier - 29, on COL (FA)
    Khudobin - 32 , on BOS (FA)
    Gillies - 24, on CGY (FA)
    J.Coreau - 26, on DET (FA)
    Broissot - 25, on EDM (FA)

    Maybe Gillies or Brossoit still have some prospect shine on them, barely.
    Khudobin is a solid vet backup.

    Some of those spots have to move to players who are skaters.

    I'm not sure I could do that for Larkin alone. Read Rizzie's cage match. Larkin is on the cusp of becoming what Borgstrom's ceiling could be in 3-4 years. You set yourself back offensively by that time line, that #6 pick is going to be a pure stud.

    Grubs is about a year from getting a starting gig somewhere (don't see Wsh moving him this summer) - so you would be adding another back up. 30-35 starts. IMO, you need to keep Larkin, unless he lands you a true starting G... I'd sniff around on Raanta.

    Right now Jarry is your best long term option.

    I don't like that. Grubauer isn't a starter right now, and that's what you need. I'd see if you can find somebody who wants your FA backup/3rd sting guy for a 3rd string guy that matches one of your goalies under contract. Casey DeSmith on Pittsburgh would be an ideal guy to acquire for one of Gillies, J.Coreau, or Broissot.

    Backup behind a guy who gets hurt a lot and the heir apparent in Vegas. I'm not sure his talent level merits that, but they wanted him specifically, and went out and got him. They clearly believe he's the next guy in their pecking order, so we should heed that.

    I'd deal any of your impending FA guys for him.
