I like how guys that have played worse than Dubnyk the past few years is the answer to our problems.
- Lahey


I think Devan Dubnyk is D O N E done in the NHL...but yes, actually waiving him would be worse than stupid. I just don't think someone with zero urgency in his game deserves all of these second chances.

Reading the name Jake Allen above has me thinking...

You actually might make the team worse with those moves. Also allen isnt going anywhere.

Yakupov, Jones, Smid for Allen, Pietrangelo.

About what? There is a reason STL is trying to move Elliot, they want to get Allen in. He isn't going anywhere.

How long until we should trade Yak for some 2nd liners, ignoring that our offense hasn't been the problem?

It's time for Braydon Coburn. Flyers are a good trading partner right now.

No one is stupid enough to suggest waiving him when there is no one to replace him. You and about 3 other people are the only ones saying this. Dubey has played well as of late and hasn't been the reason we are losing.

I know, thinking about what would happen if EDM "significantly" overpaid for him. Convince St. Louis that the time is now (Hemsky, Gagner, Eberle, J Schultz, whoever they want other than Hall and Nuge)...and try to pry him out of there. This season will be tough to salvage and maybe it's time to sell the farm so to speak and secure the goalie that we can imagine holding a cup. It's not Dubnyk...not even at his best it's not Dubnyk.

Just have to add.... WE HAD A GOALIE LAST NIGHT!!!!!!!!!! Bachman was the man!! YAK scored... the game should not have even been close as we got pushed back and down all game by a more physical team... but the game had a good pace- lots of effort by our team and grit - hell even Nultz threw his weight... * we really needed someone to take care of Clifford post the Nuge hit

I want something out of Buffalo as they are DTT, but I don't want Myers at this point. And how long until Erhoff's contract is deemed horrid? He isn't exactly doing that well. Then again he is a plus on a horrid team playing a lot of minutes.

You want to give Eberle for a goalie that has 15 NHL games as a goalie?

Goalies are stupid, fickle, headcases that swing violently in production from one year to the next.

For as many teams that have built cup winners from the net out, there are tons of mediocre goalies that tagged along and got the team across the finish line. Are Anti Niemi, Corey Crawford, Cam Ward, Marc-Andre Fleury, etc. better than Dubnyk? yeah probably, but I don't really care to sell the farm for Jake Allen like it's necessary at this juncture (or even, at all).
