<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>All_Knowing</b></div><div>While I do agree with the lack of consistency is certainly there, your proving statement is very flawed. You failed to mention that it was back to back nights against 2 playoff bound teams. Saving 45 shots during a rival game and then coming out less than 24 hours later to play against one of, if not the fastest teams in the NHL. Any goalie would struggle in that situation...</div></div>

True, it was a back to back but it isn't as uncommon for goalies to play in back to back games as it once was. He's only won 4 of his last 14 games with a save % below .900 since December 1st. In my opinion Vanecek is the more reliable goalie going forward. He has a worse record that Samsonov but has a very solid .920%. I could be wrong but I think if Samsonov's inconsistencies continue it would be good to get what we can get for him now while his trade value is high. It's a gamble for sure but I think this helps them long term.
