Avs fans are unhappy with Grubrauer .
I remember being disappointed the isles lost out on Grubrauer.
I thought the Avs pulled off a steal by getting him for a 2nd and taking on a cap dump they would buyout.
I was ECSTATIC when the Aves made that trade. That was a relief.
The Isles-must-want-Grubauer-and-should-be-ready-to-part-with-1st-rounders-for-him attitude across the Internet was driving me insane, even if I could FULLY understand why Caps fans were pushing that narrative.
Also, how people were making the "Lou got Schneider and Andersen, so he MUST want Grubauer" connection, I'll never know. Philipp was never near being at the prospect status those two were at when they were acquired and heck, Andersen already had 30-win season under his belt.
Any true analysis of Grubauer through last season results in that there's little reason to believe he's ever going to be a top-flight starter in this league.
As such, his play for the Aves to date isn't surprising.
But hey, that's just me... I had hoped Lou would simply sign Bernier or Lehner rather than dish out assets for decent back-up with an unproven starter status.
