It seems the johnny stuff is eclipsing everything in our front office right now. It shouldn't be this way- it should definitely prevent high value moves and big pieces as we figure out salary, but it doesn't take a genius to look at our goalie situation and see a bit of a problem brewing.
Wolf hasn't played a single NHL game.
What is exactly is the problem brewing with our goalies?
I would suggest the goalie situation is as good as its been in a long time


Clear #1: Markstrom (yes yes he didn't play well v. the Oilers)
Strong back-up: Vladar
Emerging potential long-term starter: Wolf

What's the problem here?

In addition, the goalies being moved in these deals are being acquired because the teams think they can be #1s and they have a stronger track record to show that. I don't think a team is acquiring Vladar to be their #1.
