If you do let Howard go I wonder if the leafs did move bernier they'd take Howard on as a part of a phaneuf trade to detroit

Also for a backup you'd probably want a vet who could step in if mrazek falters


If howard leaves I think Gustavsson might stay though he's made of glass it seems.

Been saying for a while, I wouldn't panic if babcock leaves because blashill coached half the team to the calder cup. He's a great coach - obviously not as good as babcock but he's ready for an NHL spot, and if he doesn't get it with the wings this year don't be surprised if he gets it with someone else next year.

Ehhhh I'm with stealth though, if wings trade Howard they need a backup that can step up if mrazek isn't up to snuff. That's why I like gus... but he's been healthy for like a third of his time in detroit.

but really i dont see howard going anywhere the season will most likely be split
but everyone says they are so excited for our goaltending tandem bla bla bla

I don't see him traded this year. I think he'll split something like 47/25/10 with Mrazek as healthy 1A and McCollum coming up to cover for Howard as 1B during Howard's annual groin injuries.
