Larsson left for personal matters I absolutely loved having him on the team such a warrior doubt would come back but that’s honestly the only way I’d consider moving Barrie.
Islanders trade I gotta give a ton of credit for recognizing smith is the goalie standing in the way of pursuing any goalie with term. That being said I can’t see any scenario Holland would approach smith about a trade or even less likely do it without talking to smith. Ball is in his court can choose to retire or come back whatever he decides Holland needs to work around it. Thankfully very confident in skinner.
Moving kosk is doable and almost required if looking to tamper with roster in anyway so won’t say much about that other than if doing so highly recommend finding a veteran 3rd string goalie or back up on expiring deal because we can’t risk doing to skinner that we have been doing to kosk. It’s one thing to lean and test a young goalie it’s another to be completely reliant and run him into the ground which is exactly what we have done to kosk.
