They realize Jake Allen has a .891 save percentage over his last two seasons (63 games) and is 33 years old right...

How is he an improvement on Vanecek (.903) or Schmid (.908).

And you're potentially trading a 2nd round pick for that honor....okay then.

It's trades like this that make me think sometimes "I probably could be a better GM than a lot of NHL GMs".

Because I've said this now Allen will probably go .920 the rest of the way and will look great because "Goalies are voodoo".
