Which expansion available goalies do you believe would McPhee take ahead of Grubauer? Curious to what you think.
I went over (on a cursory level) the potential ones available and it wasn't that pretty outside of maybe Ranta
I haven't really put on effort about the whole expansion draft and the Vegas situation so i don't know which guys are exempt so i'm not going to go out guessing but there are some good young goalies in the league. Korpisalo, Domingue and guys like that.
They are propably not better than Grubauer but just saying that if they are staring at the decision between Grubauer + skater from Arizona, or Domingue + skater from Capitals, they might pick the latter and take the slightly worse goalie.
If i'm Vegas i'm hoping for Murray. Ben Bishop as the Plan B. Plan C is put less value on goaltending, and take guy like Niemi or Lehtonen for example in return for getting a pick and then drafting your own future goalie. But they have lots of options there. Guys like Mason and Neuvirth are UFA's too and one of them will likely need a team. Brian Elliott might be available at the expansion draft.
