If we're truely looking forward to the future, Hank needs to see himself out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThirtyONE Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Good thing they've got a 24-year-old prince in waiting, then, eh? Both you can have both. The NHL is a tandem league now. They'd be incredible together. Hank is purely a backup at this point. I get that moving Georgie is likely but it's not actually the right move. The right move is to move hank's 7m dollars -- how, I don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tandem goaltending may be the key, but it's still subject to the salary cap. And they still have a load of high-performing goalie prospects behind them.

It'll be offset for a bit, but Georgiev is already due a new deal. Even with a short-term bridge, you're still probably paying him $3-4 million next year and $7 million after. If they're both legitimate starters, you're talking about $15 million+ in some kind of fucked up "dual starters" role. It's untenable. Trade Georgiev. Transition from Hank to Shesterkin in real-time. Keep growing your prospects, the same as you did with Shesterkin and Georgiev. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you really gonna move a player because you're worried about what it's gonna cost in 4, 5, or 6 years from now, after they both earn two more contract?

No, I'm gonna move him because his value is incredibly high, he's probably 4x the cost of Shesterkin next year, and I'd rather not shit on the franchise when an easier solution is staring me in the face.

TwoMinutesForNothing Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Georgie is hot and doing a good job, but Shesty is still 10 times the talent. You move Georgie because he has more value than Henrik. You don't need two star starting goalies, you have to choose one and have a backup. Henrik is a good backup.

SaveByRichter35 Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 If if this post wasn't true....how do you "move" Hank? You don't. Georgiev gets traded, Hank stays. Shestorkin becomes your starter/split with Hank. When Hank's contract expires you either re-sign him for 1-2 years at minimal dollars to be Shesty's backup or you let him retire and you move up Huska.

Phil Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 If if this post wasn't true....how do you "move" Hank? By approaching him honestly about the idea of retirement.

Dunny Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 No way he retires. He doesn't make that much money, relative to the lifestyle he lives. I think he wants the $$$. He's a massive cap burden but he gets paid like a 6th MLB starter reclamation project. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a massive cap burden but he gets paid like a 6th MLB starter reclamation project. I don't think he retires either. I think they trade Georgiev, because it's the simplest solution presented. But that's not what he asked me. He was asking if my post wasn't true, how to get rid of him. I think that's the only viable alternative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 In my mind it's super simple and cut and dry. Hank and Georgiev are of about equal ability right now. Hank is immovable. Even if you got him to move, you'd get nothing back. You can trade Geo and fill a hole (Hello there, Bracco!) Geo might be in the mix next year, but won't be when Wall, Huska or the Swede are ready. This is really simple. Move Geo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
