Most here would trade today's Bennet for a top goalie, but would they have traded the #4 pick at the time?
Ultimately the question is Are you OK with trading a lottery pick for top non-ufa goalie? If so, which ones do you think would be available at that price?
Holtby & Andersen are the only 2 that fit your criteria of 26-27 year-old elite goalie (though you don't define "elite").
Would MTL take a lottery pick for Price? TB interested in a lottery pick for Vasilevsky?
Goalies are a crapshoot

If we want to go back in time the most obvious is instead of Jankowski and Sieloff we draft Vasilevskiy.
