SHL GM Admiral of the Data Seas Receives: EDM S55 3rd[TBD] Sebastien Primeau Receives: Johannes Leitner (50% retained) Fishy: Before this trade, TBB terrible-est. After this trade, TBB terrible-est-est. Luke: So Tampa Bay is still trying to pull everything off that isn't stapled to the ground. Leitner is one of the only pieces left that they could trade away that is worth of value. He still can be a decent backup goalie that will help Edmonton push into the top spot in the Western conference. On the other hand, Edmonton isn't really giving anything of value. Primeau is a regressing inactive goalie, and they probably won't need their 3rd this draft. Though with how this draft is shaping up, that 3rd round pick would be alright depending on who is still there.As there are 55 people above 200 TPE atm in the S55 draft, I could expect that 3rd round pick to be between 42-48th pick. So if they scout properly they could get something of value. Nhamlet: Edmonton has been running with a 1A/1B scenario for a couple season now, with only this recent one being the one where we have a clear cut starter. Now Emiko Spector may have their starting job in jeopardy having another competitive backup who’s more than capable of stealing the job. For Leitner, this is a nice way at redemptions being part of a competitive team again with a real opportunity to win a Challenge Cup. Edmonton were the finalists last year and potentially look even better this season with their dynamic offense. It’s hard to see the full value that Leitner could offer, given that Spector has played decently and they aren’t necessarily going to gain a huge advantage being either the 1st or 2nd seed in their Conference given how tight and unpredictable it is with the likes of New Orleans, San Francisco, Texas, and Calgary all in that bottlenecked battle. Edmonton may see the need to give Spector some rest as they are currently the league leading in minutes played with now former Blizzard backup Primeau having seen 1 start in 37 games. It’s possible this might help reduce some of the defensive woes that Edmonton have been experiencing as of late with having another dependable option to look to. Pay each man what he wrote.
