True, but its fair to point out Vegas goaltending situation early this season when MAF, M. Subban and Dansk all got injured at the same time and they were forced to roll Lagace, a goalie with no NHL experience. Even with his usual under 90% perforamce, somehow they managed to keep winning.

I think this season only shows how much of a difference is a good GM who can read players, see potential and understands the importance of a character. I dont want to be a whiner, but when I see how our GM treats his draft picks and misreads his own roster the same time and then you see McPhee building a cup contender out of unwanted players...
