Can someone explain the Talbot-Stolarz trade?
Oilers get probably a worse goalie, who will be almost assuredly be a UFA at the end of the season, and they refuse to play except in relief when Koskinen blows a game.
Meanwhile, Talbot is third-string in Philadelphia and hardly playing (has played in 2 games).
I still don't understand what the point was.

Originally I believed it was their way of creating the cap space needed for Sekera.
Then they proceeded with burying Manning in the A (where he’s healthy scratched).
I would assume that when they decided Koskinen was their guy (why?) they had a conversation with Talbot and from that convo they wanted to give him a shot at a situation he could play in and make a difference. Now, he’s reportedly pretty close with Connor Hart, so (again I’m assuming) the idea would be to send him to “mentor” Hart while we get back someone who can be a serviceable backup (jury is still out) and weget an up close look at the guy to see how he meshes with Kosko to perhaps keep him around.
What I want to know is why this organization thought it was so imparitive to sign Koskinen to such a lucrative deal at the point of the year they did? And how after such small sample sizes they figure he’s
the goalie to put your hopes on.
|
I don't doubt any of this, but why wouldn't you let Stolarz start a game as some point? You already are ushering him into UFA, at least find out what you have.
They signed Koskinen with a small sample size. They may sign Stolarz with no sample size.
