Crazy, 3 other teams were in on him.Da_Hawks wroteCOLONWas not including your team - you acquired a good goalie - on par with Rinne throughout the year.The BBKL Insider wroteCOLONTo be fair, Fleury literally won me the first 3 rounds of our playoffs. I lost because Matt's entire team was stronger than mine.
I had discussions with at least 5-6 teams, but only three where offers were ''on the table'' before they decided to go with lesser options. I won't name teams unless they wish to discuss publicly as you have.The BBKL Insider wroteCOLONCrazy, 3 other teams were in on him.Da_Hawks wroteCOLONWas not including your team - you acquired a good goalie - on par with Rinne throughout the year.The BBKL Insider wroteCOLONTo be fair, Fleury literally won me the first 3 rounds of our playoffs.

I'm not even sure who it would be? Mik(Nsh), Vegas and Will (Dal) would be my guesses.
I really can't justify doing a straight swap of Price for Rinne. You said that you would never pay 7m for ok Rinne, so by that logic nobody in their right minds would ever pay 10.5 for sack of shit Price. No way in the hell do I stick myself with that contract moving forward - even if he rebounds, he'll never have any value.Malette18 wroteCOLONI would have taken Rinne over Mrazek for my playoff run if the asking price wasn't Price +.
Even if he does. 10.5 for a goalie with consistency and injury issues - who plays behind one of the worst teams in the NHL? Hard pass.CasperX22 wroteCOLONWhoever owns Price better hope he rebounds. Otherwise, you have a really expensive cap dump.
My comment was in context of his real contract and what I'd do as a real NHL GM. Yes 7M for his fantasy stat line this year is great, which I previously made clear.Da_Hawks wroteCOLONI really can't justify doing a straight swap of Price for Rinne.

And you thought that Rinne at 7 vs Price at 10.5 would be a fair trade? With that contract, Price retires in MTL unless he is traded with 50% retention.Malette18 wroteCOLONMy comment was in context of his real contract and what I'd do as a real NHL GM.

I'd lose a 1 for 1 swap of the two. You're a rebuilder. Even if Price isn't a top 5 goalie in the league he will be a guaranteed starter for years to come. But it doesn't matter what he is you just need a body. There is no security with Rinne after next year and you could end up with nothing.Da_Hawks wroteCOLONAnd you thought that Rinne at 7 vs Price at 10.5 would be a fair trade?Malette18 wroteCOLONMy comment was in context of his real contract and what I'd do as a real NHL GM.

I won't reveal the details of the convo but I inquired on Rinne and he was insistent on adds to Price so it didn't get very far.CasperX22 wroteCOLONWas Price offered 1-1 for Rinne?
I don't recall what the + was and I deleted the conversation.CasperX22 wroteCOLONI think asking for an add to Rinne wouldve been fair. Now obviously that depends on what type of add he was asking for.
I'm not too worried about losing out on goaltending. The prices for crappy ones aren't that steep. I'll just grab a guy like Mrazek off the scrap pile when the time comes.Malette18 wroteCOLONI'd lose a 1 for 1 swap of the two. You're a rebuilder.

Given your goalies, I`d say you would take just about anyone right nowMatthew wroteCOLONId take price over rinne easily. Their histories and age are just really big in that scenario.
It's one of the best kept secrets in BBKL, but Rinne is available. Act now while you still can.Matthew wroteCOLONTrue.
I only need a gp goalie. No point in paying a superstar price for "the best goalie in bbkl"Da_Hawks wroteCOLONIt's one of the best kept secrets in BBKL, but Rinne is available. Act now while you still can.Matthew wroteCOLONTrue.
