If Colorado wants to send us Makar for him, where do I sign?

Doesn't it suck when you have a well thought out statement and when your finished talking all you hear is a dial tone...

Pysyk or piss off

I think someone like Lehner is fine in the 3-4 mil range.

But I wouldn't look at him and say that's our long term starter

- sbroads24



I'd like to see him with a competent team in front of him first. If Lehner doesn't get the benefit of the doubt neither does Ullmark.

Maybe he's waiting on a conference call with Mark Cuban. We all know that mother(frank)er likes to talk...

I think he's proven over his almost two and a half years here that he's a guy that doesn't push the needle.

In a Dan Byslma system, he's right where Nilsson was, which was decent in terms of Sv%. In a Housley system he's a tire fire at times, like Johnson has mostly been this year.

I'd be fine if they extended him 2-3 years at 3 mil, and leave the door open for a true #1 to come in at some point, and I'd also be fine moving him.

Lehner has been below average this year in terms of 5 on 5 Sv%.

He was above average last year under Bylsma.

He's a goalie who is a product of his team. Which is like half the goalies in the league.

Take him or leave him

Yeah, he's just like most of the team. Not good enough to overcome his teammates shortcomings.

The entire team is just made up of passengers.....and Jack Eichel

I don't think it's that dire, although hard to argue with the current record. Like you've pointed out before, I think this team is missing a clear #2 and by extension a complete core.
