anything to back this rumour up?
Kevin Lee is reporting that LA wants Gerber, and they want him before the season starts.
Cloutier has been placed on waivers.
I am sre LA will not overpay for Gerber, as Ottawa would likely give him away.

anything to back this rumour up?
Since when are trade rumours breaking news?
The fact that its Gerber rumoured pretty much guarantees it will be someone else LA obtains, if they even make a trade at all.
99.999% of all trade rumours never happen, sorry if I sound like a broken record.
Thanks for the heads up Leviathan - news, rumor, whatever - this is the kind of thing that I appreciate about FH forums - Gerber is tucked in on one of my teams just in case, based on your post - cost me nothing and could pay big.
its no secret that LA has been searching for a goalie... Indeed it seems that franchise has pretty much often been looking for a solution in nets. The turnstyle in LA is newsworthy.
I think it boils down to what assets LA is willing to offer as there are a few goalies floating around the NHL who could be \"had\"
Consider Sim Hockey because guys who play shutdown minutes, deflect shots and clear creases build championships. Yet in fantasy they litter the unwanted UFA lists.
Gerber, Bryzgalov are just two that pop into my mind.

Think the moon will be blue before Ducks send Bryz to LA.
Gerber doesn\'t do anything for LA. No point trying for quick fixes with upside. They have Bernier in the wings, one, and they have plenty of goaltenders in the system, two. They\'d need a one year rental of someone who is a top tier goalie for this year, until JB takes the reigns for the next 10+ years. No point getting Gerber. Why? See Cloutier. Do nothing, or go for a big rental.
