hmm, ok. guess they're going with Lindback/Tokarski, or are they still in the Luongo derby and the loser between the kids will play in the AHL?

yeah hard to pin value on young goalies. been through it all with Schneider already, you never know how they're valued around the league.
and i mean, it's like trying to evaluate the trade market. i have ppl telling me that Florida (for example) isn't interested in Luongo bc they have Markström as their goalie of the future. dude has appeared in 8 NHL games, i don't think they're set on him being the savior just yet. so maybe they would make that trade and use him in a CS role for the next couple years and see how good he really is. assuming you can just run with an unproven #1 is a recipe for disaster, and i doubt most good hockey ppl would bother falling into that trap.

agree. i think he's one of the very few difference-making wingers in the league. every team should hope he makes it to July 1st.
