Come on man, again, it was the right call that didn't work out. How many GMs would have re-signed a 37 year old McBackup and let the Calder cup winning/AHL goalie of the year go for free?He gave away a solid backup for nothing and had to use a draft pick to replace the quadruple A goalie he chose instead.
For those who question Kyle Dubas, this is another minor but highly questionable decision that turned out exactly as many predicted it would.
Garrett Sparks isn’t an NHL goalie.
Hindsight is a tool you can't use to determine that decision at the time.
I mean when zaitsev is dealt for a loss, people are going to bash Dubas...but that wasn't his signing. When there's a rift between players and Babcock, people bash Dubas...that wasn't his hire.
