I agree, Grubauer is underrated and I think the oil should def pursue him! However i think a 2nd, 3rd and low prospect MIGHT get it done!

2018 second round pick and LB might do it hey ?

Very solid goalie. Numbers essentially equal to Holtby's, although Grubauer hasn't played half a season, yet, so there's no way to compare their endurance... still, that's not an issue if Edmonton just needs a backup or a 1b to lighten the load.

Of course, if Edmonton is on a tear this year, and Washington stumbles (they did give up sixteen million dollars worth of guys this summer, and add... nobody) I could maybe see Holtby waiving his NTC to join another perennial contender without the salary cap issues. And if Washington can't get by without Alzner, Shattenkirk, Williams, Schmidt and Johansson, I think Edmonton probably has enough can't miss prospects to help them get back into the picture next year, but I agree that it's a tough sell to restock another team for a promising backup goalie. Holtby's playoff status, until '17, were about the best ever, so he could be a good pickup. But since he's not realistically available, yeah, someone's going to get a very good goalie in Grubauer.

Who?

Laurent brossit our back up. Still very young and has potential

Completely agree

With Talbot getting the lions share of the workload there's no need to do this. Talbot was top 5 in Vezina voting.
