Do we really not have ANYONE in the entire system who can play goalie.  I mean any AHL level goalie should be better than Howard at this rate.

Comrie was the only decent goalie on the team, young still too. But that ship has sailed. Stevie seemingly just gave the guy away...

It must mean that Yzerman has no intention of selling Howard, no? If he did wanna sell Howard you'd think he'd at least keep Comrie in the system for when we go down a goalie

LOL Imagining thinking Yzerman could sell Howard...

What team is going to give up assets in a trade for a 35 year old goaltender, having a historically bad season? I honestly don't think a team would bite on a conditional 7th at this point...

Howard suuuuuuuucks....

If you read my post I'm talking about not trading him partner

Half this board still talks about trading him though...

Does it really matter though if he walks as a UFA? And surely you don't think he should be re-signed do you?

I did read your post and you said " Yzerman has no intention of selling Howard". He doesn't because he can't...

It's been a while since anyone has mentioned trading Howard. He has zero value. At this point, we just have to ride out the rest of this season, and let him walk (likely retire) this summer.

I'm not at all convinced we will be signing one of the bigger name goalie UFA's yet. There will be other teams in need and goalies should realistically avoid us like the plague.

After you get past those guys re-signing Howard is an entirely realistic scenario in some cases.

Yzerman is a progressive thinker though so I figure he'll snag something he likes slightly more

6 years and you still haven't learned

2014: I never thought we should move Howard.

2017: I thought (still think) we should have protected Mrazek over Howard.

2020: I think Howard should retire.
