After moving Henrik Lundqvist, in the previous weeks, and hearing throughout the league how it was a move id regret not having a franchise goalie to lean on. The team took the advice of the league and packaged up a sickening combo of youth-piks involving newly aquired okposo, E christensen, M grabovski a 1-2-4-5 draft pick combo for superstar young goalie CAREY PRICE...
When asked about the move the teams, G.M was excited, "With this move our team feels like we will be able to compete at the highest level for more than a decade. Carey is a once in a generation type player that rarely rarely comes around. We felt we still had great organizational depth even after moving some to aquire Peter Mueller, and we moved out a very very promising young forward in Kyle Okposo who the team is sad they wont get to see develop.. After moving Henrik we took some jabs from various teams around the league but we feel like landing what could be a HOF goalie is a chance we have to take."
If anything it helps you since your deal isn't official yet. And I have no problem calling you one fabrications. I think you need a refesher on how long a generation is then you may rethink you're bizarre statement.

I know, George. Hell, we have a pretty good sized deal in place.
I'm just planning on posting that after every trade Kirk announces.

I thought that comment seemed familiar!
As for Phoenix's comments on this rumoured trade there has been no word to confirm or deny this from the Phoenix camp. The team seems to be continuing along right now as if nothing has happened as they prepare for free agency and the upcoming draft.
GM Vardy is known for holding his cards close to his chest so only time will tell if this rumour is indeed true.
his 5 yr 1.72 contract is cheap enough to be a backup.. his 78ov rating (80+ AFTER FULL YR #1) will form sick tandom with carey price for many many yrs..
