I don't mind this for a few reasons, team culture being one. They are in the fight for the playoffs and gelling as a team. Selling their MVP who is signed for two more years would be a blow to that progress. The team will fall in the standings regardless given the D situation; we don't need to emulate Ottawa or Buffalo.
Two, there will be more buyers in the off season. The goalie UFA pool is very thin, so it might be worth our while to wait. Patience can pay off.
