Spending picks on a new starting goaltender? Almost a lock to happen this off season.

With the number of quality goalies hitting UFA this summer I would much prefer to keep the picks.
Also, I think the “window” is not something that anyone can really project. Yes, Gaudreau’s deal expires after three more years, but that is practically an eternity in hockey. A lot can happen between now and then, and I do not think it a foregone conclusion that Gaudreau will leave Calgary. Even if he does, I don’t expect that it leaves such a gaping hole the team is unable to fill. He’s not McDavid, and the Flames are a hell of a lot better than the Oilers.
