When I said in another comment you lose a Leon trade every time, I never considered a team would trade you one of the ones I listed above because it would be really stupid on their part.

The problem is, who are you getting that is better than Skinner, that you know is better and is cheaper? That's the problem.
My argument against the trade is any trade has to be a win for the Oilers based on where they are. To win a trade for the Oilers, they have to be getting back a play right now at a high level player that is productive right now and will be for multiple years and who's cheaper cap wise for what is going out. So any trade for Skinner won't involve a better goalie back unless that goalie costs way more money or you are getting a futeres goalie who is less proven than Skinner. So if you trade him for whatever package, you have to find a replacement even if that's just a back up and I don't think you can replace Skinners ability as a back up at the price point in the UFA market.

See, you're thinking too much like Ken Holland here. You don't see the exact route ahead of you, so you paralyze yourself and don't consider anything.
You don't know what you can get unless you are having the conversations and open to the various possibilities.
It's possible, having had the discussions and examining the possibility of a Skinner deal that you can't find a better solution and you need to go in to next year again with a Soup & Stew combo.
I'm not too concerned with whether a better goalie is cheaper that Skinner, only whether he's better. The fact is, "if he drops off a little next year, at the worse is a very good backup easily capable of giving you 35 starts of decent goaltending which in the NHL, every team desperately needs", then we have two back-up goalies and no starting netminders.
And as you say, there's a market for Stuart Skinner - many teams could use that player. Having actual trade value is a better time to trade someone than the normal Oilers model of selling when the player is valueless.
|
Trades Peter with trade value is much less risky when you have depth in that area. I think it’s be a horrible gamble and I don’t know a goalie who could be had tgat would provide a better option.
