But while adding a JVR wouldn't have guaranteed us getting past Vegas, getting a goaltender who could at least keep up with the Knights fourth-stringer would have made a heck of a big difference.

I still think Adin Hill was actually pretty good on an awful San Jose team last year and he's being undersold as a fourth-stringer. He was clearly ahead of Quick and Broissert was always a concern. At absolute worst he was a serviceable third-string with potential. The kind of depth acquisition a smart team makes just in case, you know? The alternative to just saying Logan and Broissert would probably be good enough so why not just stand pat and wait for Robin Lehner to come back. It might have won Vegas a Stanley Cup.

And even having all those guys they STILL acquired Quick to see if there was any juice left to squeeze there (although quickly determined that no, there was not).

Vegas has done a nice job in not staying married to any mistakes, and to constantly backfill behind their top players so when they miss Mark Stone for months, some of those potentially only because his salary was useful for them, they don't miss a beat. We had guys in here who didn't want to play Campbell at all in the last 15 games of the season because they were concerned it would kill our chances at top spot - the Knights voluntarily played without one of their top guys and still won the Western Conference. That's the value of depth.

If Draisaitl missed 2-3 months, can the Oilers backfill and rally around that? I think we'd just be praying that McDavid went supernova for that period of time, while the coaching staff played him 26 minutes a night.

"Thinking that a bad team's best players are the reason the team is bad is the "Tambellini re-signing Lennart Petrell" of sports opinions." @Woodguy55
