There were but a handul of goalies with SV% north of .920. Lehner was one of them. When you consider the team in front of him, the tone of this blog becomes goofy.

A 2nd? Lehner is a legit starter in this league right now. You can easily get the 1st back you paid to get him to begin with at minimum.

I agree. Lehner is worth a 1st, not a second. I would also try to get a prospect if I could or a 3rd round dp if I were to trade him.

That guy hasn't played yet with a good Defense in front of him. If he did, his numbers may have been all-star worthy.

The better question would be, "who would trade a 2nd rounder for Lehner?"

A year ago I think a number of teams might have pulled the trigger. But now?

So a year ago, coming off a largely injury ravaged season h had good value, but this offseason after playing 60 plus games hes not worth as much 2 shutouts 920 s% and 2.6 gaa. Not sure how hi value went down with numbers like that.

I'm sure teams are jumping to get him for just a first

Would you Pay a first for him if your a gm? Nope

Can you tell me where I said hes worth a first rounder,I just responded to the poster saying lehner is trash. fans may not like him based largely upon what we gave up to get him, high danger chances against, the fact is he is not garbage and put up decent starter numbers last year on a team that, as everyone here says had a crap defence.
No I don't believe we cold get a first for him nor multiple picks. Just saying hes not trash

who needs a starter, besides us?

vegas, could trade for him but I doubt it
calgary


then you have the maybes
colorado
jets
devils, if they move schneider
yotes if they move smith
nucks, if they don't bring back miller

and would you rather have schneider or lehner if your looking to trade for a starting goalie?

that still seems impossible to do, like not even a save on a missed shot. He def not perfect but seems like a fine starter for us, could prob do much worse

Where is this $5 mill. a year coming from ? Is he actually asking for that? He made a little over 3 last year. $3.5-$4 for 2/3 years, or get him out of here.

McKenzie said Lehner has a very good arbitration case to get well over $4MM a year.

schneider for 5 years at 6 per or lehner for 5 years at 5 per


I think it's an easy call
