See what I did there? It's hard to judge goalies stuck behind terrible teams. Yes, Dubnyk connected with a new goalie coach and had a rebirth of sorts but the fact is he was a Vezina nominated NHL goaltender just one season removed from playing for the Oilers. He clearly had that potential all along and the Oilers were unable to help him discover that.
All that said... I'd rather see someone else than Reimer but I won't be rattled if they do sign him because he will likely have the lowest acquisition cost.
