This all comes down to the contract. If Vasy was this sub par making 5-6, like yeah, it sucks, but it's whatever. Goalies are streaky, goalies have bad runs.
When you're dedicating just shy of $10M a season for the rest of linear time, it becomes a monstrous problem. It becomes on par with Kucherov only putting up 15-20-35 in a season. It becomes on par with Hedman getting walked nightly.
When they chose to dedicate that kind of money to Vasy, they were taking an absolutely enormous gamble and even if he's on his game and playing the way he's capable 95% of the time, if that 5% hits at the wrong time of the year, you are done.
I just hate it from top to bottom.
