Jordan Binnington
The new Toronto Maple Leafs head coach Craig Berube won a Stanley Cup with Jordan Binnington.
It's possible that Binnington gets overrated because he won a Stanley Cup, but given how random goalie performance, it does make sense to value goalies who have proven they can win at least slightly more than goalies who haven't.
Binnington comes with attitude problems and baggage, but I don't think its fair to discount him for that since it's the kind of attitude and confidence that is amazing when you win and kind of gross when you don't. It might not be the most likable thing, but it probably is what allows him to hit the heights that he's hit.
Binnington is only 30 and if you take out the 2021-22 and 2022-23 season, is career is absolutely stellar. I think also that two bad seasons really speaks to the volatility of the goalie position than a fault in Binnington himself.
Binnington has a no-trade clause and three season left at $6 million per. I think his age and his contract make him pretty desirable to the Leafs.
If he can be had for a reasonable cost, he would be an ideal fit for the Leafs. Whether or not he's available is up in the air, but the Blues don't seem like their in a position to compete so he probably could be had.
If the cost of Markstrom is a bad defenseman and a low-pick, the cost to trade for Binnington should be more than reasonable.
