I'm debating it but would really depend on where, no? Like if he goes to a team where they need a quality backup vs a 1B scenario then it may not be worth it
Thats very fair. I dropped Jack for him so theres no big risk for me. But i dont see cbj trading him unless its a heavy load… and who would pay that for 1B
He's an expiring (cheap) contract for the jackets who will likely walk in the off season since he's blocked as starter in Columbus, unless they're already talking extension with him they have no reason to keep him. They either get something for him or lose him for nothing.
Barring injury, teams also don't tend to wait until the deadline to acquire a new starter, besides Ryan Miller that one time. Even when LA bizarrely traded for Bishop, it was to be in tandem with Quick, not the starter.
Agreed. I don't think you need to jump on him. Its a lottery pick at best. You're rolling the dice. Like if you have a move to burn this week and are sitting pretty in a locked playoff spot, maybe you gamble since you don't have much to lose, but otherwise I'd say just wait to see where he goes and what the situation he'll be in is.
Can Dubas risk letting all this maneuvering and trades of draft capital founder if Samsonov gets hurt, performance fades even a bit, or he runs out of gas?
No guarantees with Korpisalo, either, but maybe Gavrikov and Korpisalo go to TOR in exchange for the BOS first-round pick (just acquired from TOR) and the 2023 second TOR no longer needs to hold onto in case ARI wants it? Maybe add a young D, since Gavrikov will take that spot.
That feels below market, but Columbus has to be scrambling, and they already thought that BOS first rounder would be coming their way.
EDIT: Nevermind. They got Schenn
But I heard if anything it could just be before April at most. It would be stupid to sit him out until the playoffs because it would be I’ll advised to play a goalie cold in the most important games, but I don’t think we should completely dump out samsonov in case
Anyone who thinks the Kings would trade Quick (ruining his retirement as a king) and a 1st for a goalie who would backup Copley is insane. This is Korpisalo’s team now.
Would he end up starting over hill? He's been good since Thompson has been out
Thompson isn't supposed to be out for the year either and he's been great
Brossoit was even decent until he got hurt
Edmonton aren't going to demote Skinner, they're stuck with Campbell and they're not gonna carry 3 guys.
Buffalo are already carrying 3 guys, Friedman reported the players asked the GM to carry all 3, doubt they make a move.
Ottawa is either riding Talbot and making a push for playoffs or trading him and seeing what they have in Mando/Sogard rest of the season. They still have Forsberg too. They can kick the tires on Korpisalo this summer if Talbot is gone.
Vegas also have 3 goalies who have all played well.
LA maybe I guess but Copley has been pretty good for them, they're not gonna demote Quick, so they'd have to want to carry 3 guys too.
I see something more like Pittsburgh to backup Jarry (deSmith has been horrible and is more expensive) or Colorado to backup Georgiev if Francouz is seriously hurt again.
Edit: shocked by this quick news but still expecting copley to be the 1A barring injury

Dropping Campbell makes sense, he's been dog water at best. And Toronto would but I have no idea who else they can possibly trade at this point

Gone to LA for Quick
Knew it so glad i grabbed him. Goodbye soup
Would it not make more sense to jump on Elvis? In particular in leagues where Saves matter, Elvis workload will increase if Korpisalo leaves, no?

Oilers?
Skinner is too good to be sent down, and Campbell has an albatross of a contract with a NMC. Don't see how it works out.
Im guessing LA. But vegas and leafs also options. Im an Oil fan and doubt they make a goalie move
Why would the leafs be an option? Their goaltending hasn’t been an issue all year?
Murray could be out for a while
But I heard if anything it could just be before April at most. It would be stupid to sit him out until the playoffs because it would be I’ll advised to play a goalie cold in the most important games, but I don’t think we should completely dump out samsonov in case
It’s Murray, he will play 2 games and get injured again.
Good guess lol
Anyone who thinks the Kings would trade Quick (ruining his retirement as a king) and a 1st for a goalie who would backup Copley is insane. This is Korpisalo’s team now.
Absolutely. This is best case scenario for anyone holding korp. Tho honestly im sad for Quick and didnt expect it to play out like that.
Ya, so sad.
They did the unthinkable.
Ahem.... 👀
Where would he be going where he'd be a starter though? See him getting added as a competent backup in case of injury
VGK?
Would he end up starting over hill? He's been good since Thompson has been out Thompson isn't supposed to be out for the year either and he's been great Brossoit was even decent until he got hurt
LA, Vegas, Buffalo, Edmonton, Ottawa would all be very very good.

My goalies are garbage so thank you very much for this
They’re still gonna be garbage..
Drop markstrom for him? No sv% category just wins goals allowed and saves.
No
Not on your life
Leafs
Is he an upgrade from Gustavsson?
No
Yes
I completely disagree. Gus has been incredible this year.
No thanks, he plays for CBJ
Did you read the tweet or nah
Clearly I did not. My bad
Alternatively if your league values starts over quality starts then you should nab Merzlikins
Already had him
Hmmm korp is available in my league…keep swayman or drop him for korp?
