smyth260 wrote on Mon, 18 December 2023 18:19 | I am not advocating for Raanta/Skinner to take the team into the playoffs, but I think that is a better pair while the team finds other solutions. I don’t really care if that makes more work managing the cap, a 1.5 million dollar contract should not be that hard to get rid of at the deadline.
As it sits, this team is outside of the playoffs, Skinner is a sub .900 goalie on the season, they are overplaying him, and Pickard is not really an NHL option. We could use a band-aid now. Another losing streak and the playoffs become distant. It’s a very real chance with the current tandem. God forbid Skinner get’s injured. We have no contingency, and no recovery time has been bought with our record.
I keep thinking about Vegas and how many goalies they tried last year. Thompson, Hill, Brossoit, Quick…that team had band-aids, plan Bs and Cs in a volatile position.

True, but they had that magical thing that we've never tried - competent management. It meant that they always knew how to make the cap work for them. That and goalies that actually got hurt, instead of just sucking. That helps a lot as Lehner's cap off the books is way better than Campbell at just over $4MM cap hit playing in the minors.
With piss-poor management who views cap circumvention as something they're above, rather than an opportunity, we really only have one shot at this - so better have them focus on the silver bullet solution.
And now Raanta's gone through anyhow so that point is moot!
