I just pray it isnt 6 years and buyout proof

Signing Halak is never a bad decision. But he likes playing on the east coast, and he’s not a long term answer at this stage.
Schneider is a goalie with hip issues. That’s about as useful as a blind fighter pilot.
Markstrom’s the best goalie they’ve had since Kiprusoff.
Kippers 27-35sv %:

Markstrom, 26-30, since he became a regular.

Markstrom isn’t Kipper. Nobody is.
But he’s damn good, and he’s put up those numbers on a rebuilding Canucks squad.
We could’ve done worse - see the last six years.
