If the Kings don’t want to send over their best backup, maybe they’d cough up their third stringer? Cal Petersen has played in 11 NHL games in his career, all this season with the Kings. And, as you can see above, his stats are good,
Interestingly, like Blackwood, his stats are lesser at the AHL level — this season he’s at 3.94 GAA and 0.891 save percentage with the Ontario Reign.
Petersen has one year left on his entry-level contract, valued at $925,000. Would the Kings accept Varlamov in trade? Sure — if we retained some salary. Might have to cough up a seventh-rounder, too.
Still, it really doesn’t seem fair to see how much goalie depth some teams have when we’re over here parched.
