Goaltending is still the issue...

[mansquito]

We can go ahead and sign up all the right-handed defenseman we want. Won't matter a lick! We do not have a goaltender on the roster, especially UPL who can steal games like most modern good goaltenders can! Therefore the defense can never play the way they need to, because they know one wrong move is in the back of the net every time! 

Until we get serious, about the goaltender position... We're going to see groundhog's day over and over again! This organization used to be one of the premier organizations in the league with goaltending! Wake up and get rid of UPL! He is the problem... And you won't go, to where you want to go, with him!

Running back UPL with Levi will be 15yrs no playoffs

They need to add a goalie who is above the level of a guy they can sneak through waivers on cut-down day.  That’s likely the best we can hope for. There are no great options, maybe no obvious good options. I would probably try to sign Vladar, but I acknowledge that he is not a great option.

We know this as mere fans yet we have a GM getting paid a million bucks or close to it who says he likes what we have. I’m hoping it’s a smokescreen but he’s literally neglected the position since he got here.

He says he likes what we have because he has no choice but to say it publicly. He knows they effed up letting Ullmark go over an extra year but he can’t say that publicly. They know they need better but whether they have the wherewithal to do anything about it, or even if there is an upgrade available, is debatable.

We could have gotten John Gibson from the Ducks. Could have gotten out of that UPL contract and went out and got a backup like Jake Allen in FA while giving Levi at least another full year in the NHL but that’s not what we do.

You don’t know if they could have gotten Gibson. 
A) he had to waive his NMC

B) Mrazek appealed to Anaheim because he’s the same nationality as their starter and has less term than UPL

Allen is still a possibility but he has to want to come here.

Adams didn’t mention it at all, doubt he even tried imo.
