Chicago won with Niemo. Pittsburgh won 2 cups with Matt Murray.
Most of those teams had the pieces before they had the goaltending. It’s going reverse for us but that’s ok. We will have to draft talented players to play in front of Wolf.

Doesnt' change your point but quick correction...
Binnington didn't start a game until January 7. Right about when the Blues got red hot. He was backup and got into two games in relief in December. He also wasn't used until about a month after Berube became coach on November 19 of that season.
