Don't think anyone's mentioned Daccord dominating the ahl the last couple months but he has. Move a goalie in the offseason??

For me, the problem with that is that so far D'Accord has been a fantastic AHL goalie, but not so much in the NHL.

I'm also not sure how much success we should expect going into a season with Grubauer/D'Accord as our goalie tandem.

I mean, Grubi hopefully gets it going but that's a big if after this season and then having D'Accord as the other option's not a winning formula.

Really hope Evans gets at least a half of a season in the AHL.

I am a firm believer that some minor league adjustment time is always good for the long-term development of prospects coming from Major Junior.

Rushing them straight into the NHL usually stunts their growth and lowers their ceiling. They are so focused on not making mistakes at this level, it removes the creativity aspect from extremely critical development years. That is hard to get back.
