Seems Hellebuyck's camp is talking with Fitz about the possibility of coming to NJ. Not sure we'd want to risk the future with the kind of cap hit he'd demand. I think we still have a solid future with VV and Schmid. Thoughts?

Yeah and if he's truly demanding Vasy numbers for a contract we'd have hard time signing our other guys. Especially because we're about to pay Timo. I think Scmid's ceiling is really good and he could be the future #1.

The issue isn't this season. It's the future we have to worry about. Dawson, Luke, Simon will likely earn big contracts.

Fitz has shown he knows what he's doing building out this team in a smart way so I'm not worried he'll hedge the future on a bad Hellebuyck contract. I can't wait until Nemec gets into the league. The future is bright and I can't wait.
