Alberga: “What in regards to the crease Friedge. This Laurent Brossoit story that there’s mutual curiosity have legs? Are they in on Markstrom, guys like that?
Friedman: “I feel they might love, I feel Markstrom is the form of participant they might love however I feel it’s only a actually sophisticated deal to make. I had some folks inform me that they, that if Markstrom will get dealt, they, they, there’s different groups that they assume are more likely. Like, like LA or or New Jersey.
I do know Ottawa was , I simply don’t know the way Markstrom feels about Ottawa. I feel that Calgary – Toronto offers, the entire Tanev factor final yr proved that these offers are actually exhausting to do.
So. I simply assume that, I feel Markstrom I imply, the GM signed him, however I feel it’s gonna be actually exhausting to do.
Brossoit is a extremely fascinating man. I feel, I feel he’s the form of man that makes quite a lot of sense. The factor is there although is, you realize, he’s, he’s a great goalie, however I’m questioning, are you going to get, you higher ensure you have a 3rd. Whether or not it’s Martin Jones. Like in case you have a look at their histories, Woll and Brossoit don’t equal 82.
So I’m, I’m questioning about if there’s, in the event that they purpose somewhat greater and Brossoit is there as a extremely good choice if they will’t hit it out of the park.
Rosehill: “Do you assume they’d be sensible to go, I imply, it’s not like he’s unproven or something like that. I imply, he has, you realize, a great document within the playoffs earlier than he obtained damage when the Knights received the Stanley Cup. He’s been studying behind the most effective goaltender on this planet, lots of people assume in Winnipeg.
Is he, do you assume they need to go get a longtime like Vezina profitable goaltender, or they’re gonna go along with somebody and form of roll the cube with how they do on this market?
Friedman: “No, I feel that they might, like that’s why I feel like Markstrom is a man that may makes quite a lot of sense, regardless that I don’t understand it’ll occur.
Like, I had individuals who say to me, a man who makes like, you realize, like, for instance, like one of many issues with Marner is that you realize, Marner like, that lots of people suspect that Vegas might be round it as a result of Vegas is simply, they’re sensible. They’re round any good participant.
So I obtained folks hypothesizing Shea Theodore, Logan Thompson offers to me, like for instance,
Like, I feel they’re gonna go on the market and Jay, and so they’re going to attempt to get the most effective goalie that they will get. And the one factor is, I do know the group actually believes in Woll. I feel they actually assume extremely of him, however he’s, he has bother staying wholesome.
So you must get the absolute best goalie you may get, due to let’s say of Woll will get down, goes down subsequent yr, like who’s the, who’s the man that makes you’re feeling the most effective and he’s obtained the nest, internet. And Brossoit would really feel make you’re feeling fairly good, I feel, but additionally, I feel you’d need to purpose somewhat bit greater in case you might.
