Free agency day ONE goalies edition

Leon blew his load too early and forgot about the goalies

 

Generally some of the most contested free agents in the brhl free agency auction process.  And rightly so as teams have won and lost based on poor goaltending.....or at least they think that that was their problem.....oh so many people and things to blame but never themselves eh!

 

Marc-andre Fleury. $10,165,000

Sergie Bobrovsky.  $8,170,000

Anton Forsberg.  $8,025,000

Cam Talbot. $5,885,000

Jonathan Quick. $5,700,000

Semyon Varlamov. $5,643,000

Jordan Binnington.  $5,450,000

Elvis Merzlikins.  $5,450,000

James Reimer. $4,012,500

 

Lack of true high-end #1 goalies in free agency this year may mean that teams may be focusing their most ridiculous bids elsewhere.  However, goalie needs are still important and the fight for the services of these mid-tier goalies is apparent.  Other than the 2 restricted free agents on this list, all the decent goalies are past their prime and regressing very quickly.  Their effectiveness and ratings will continue to be inconsistent year to year so it definitely is a big risk to be investing long term capspace and dollars on such an asset.

 

 

This is only day ONE.  Will more drama unfold?  Opinions will differ and 'civil' conversation will follow haha.

Love

Leon
