Agreed - and at some point, your goalie prospects have to be backups and then starters for significant stretches. Plus, who was available at the deadline that would've moved the needle, and at what price? Of the goalies available from sellers, only Raanta was realistic I think, and the price would have been more than we'd have liked.
