Waiting is not always the best move.
The likelihood that there are 5 or 6 better goalies with NHL experience similar to Vladar is low. The likelihood of an injury is higher. Goaltending is not usually a “next man up” job the way defence or forwards are as it is a lot harder to hide a guy who is not quite there in net like you can with forwards and defence.
