    Default Trade for Greiss?

    NYI have been on fire and Greiss seems to be playing quite well. I just picked up Kuemper as a FA but I don't know if he's the solution to my weak G corps. I was thinking about offering Kuemper and Huberdeau for Greiss. I figure that Kuemper was a FA pick and cost me nothing, and I have enough firepower to lose Hubs. What do you guys think? Would this solidify my goaltending?

    Another option would be to just pick up Brossoit as a handcuff for Helly. I guess I'd just flip Kuemper to waivers. Halak, Khudobin and DeSmith are all FA's as well. But that would cost me a roster move and I've used 30 of my 40 so I'm trying to hold on to them. A trade doesn't cost me any moves.

    Thoughts? Thanks! Rep given.

    I think you should hang onto Kuemper for now. He makes a good 3rd goalie. ARI has been playing great hockey lately.

    Greiss will probably see less starts unless Lehner gets injured. Probably 2 games to 1 or 3 games to 1 split?

    I think you should stand pat here, as well. Greiss has only started 3 out of the last 12 games for the Islanders, so acquiring him is a risky proposition. At least with Kuemper you're getting starts.

    Halak might be a smart move considering Rask went down with a concussion last night. The problem is the All-Star break and bye weeks are here so by the time Boston plays again Rask might be ready to return.

    Thanks guys. Yeah, maybe I will stand pat. Kuepmer and ARZ played great against TOR last night, so that's something! I thought about Halak, but as you say, there's a couple weeks for Rask to get healthy so maybe that's premature. Rask seemed to have won back the #1 before that concussion.

    But we gotta remember that Lehner is like out of this world and the best goalie in the last month or so. I doubt that he will continue to play 9 out of 12 games and has save % close to .999
