Eklund is a really good plan B if we do not get Bernier

Goalies moving forward are a question mark as well- especially if Ullmark leaves in free agency
- jdfitz77

Fools if they don’t go after Driedger with a really competitive offer in UFA this offseason. With him and Ullmark you’d have your 1a/1b, then see who seizes the lead role.

Of that I really have no idea. Not much of an nhl track record to demand too much

Edit; he might be more interested in seeing a chance to become the #1

And that would probably more than double his current deal.

I think you swap Olofsson with R2 for now.

However I like that and it seems realistic.

That would be nice,
but i think there’s a few teams that will go after both of them

I’d like to see him stay in FL on a similar type deal as you mentioned. 1 more year at double this year’s pay to remain Bob’s backup/the team’s safety net. It would be a year to let Knight develop unhurried, and another year for Dreegs to build his resumè as a bonafide nhl goalie.

That doesn’t help the defense.

Dahlin. Joker
Bryson. Risto
Samuelson. Borgen.

Send Miller packing? Moving on from McCabe or giving Samuelson the shot?

And not worried about what Dahlin, Joker and Risto will cost you?

I’m just not sold on the money / term Risto is going to command on his next deal for the second pairing. If he comes reasonable, maybe...

Good Jack. I really don’t like olofsson though.


I really wish we could’ve seen jack play with the kids right now. Would’ve been interesting to see what happens.

If you keep Risto you're going to pay him a pretty big salary and you'll lose Borgen in the expansion draft. It makes too much sense to keep Borgen and move Risto and pocket the cap space.
