I would. Holtby has a .930 SV% in 121 minutes and Grubauer has an .837 SV% in 105 minutes. That's the difference between winning and losing in the playoffs. Trotz went with the hot hand going into the playoffs and at the time I couldn't fault the logic but in hindsight it's pretty clear it was the wrong move. Even the best don't have a crystal ball.
