Bouwmeester is the only one I can think of. I know they traded for his rights but I still count it.

The disaster is not getting a starting goalie.
It can be Markstrom. It can be Holtby.
It can’t be neither. Neither is a fireable offense - Brad was never going to have a better look at two supremely qualified UFA goalies in their early 30s.
If he whiffs on both, he’s incapable of solving this issue.

Really? Who are these dozens of goalies you see shaking free through expansion next summer?

It would have to be a 1A, 1B situation due to his injury concerns.
I'd rather have him on a deadline deal, as protection in case your starter goes down. He could really help you in the playoffs.

Why do people even bother trying to beat SureLoss on free agent day / trade deadline day?

With the Oilers signing a bunch of stuff I have to think the Flames are just finalizing Markstroms contract.
I dont think the Oilers were ever an option for him.

I absolutely agree. Moved off of that and started with other business.

No kidding. Just let the robot do his thing, he's the best at it. Then you don't end up with fake accounts being posted and multiple threads on the same signing/trade etc.
