I'm surprised I haven't seen this suggested more, but at what point do you just let Frankie start next year and grab a capable backup in case he gets injured? I know that it's not ideal, especially with Frankie's injury history, but the FA goalie market kind of sucks this year and they've shown that they can succeed with just average goaltending. And while I don't think he's a top quality starting goalie, I don't think there's that much of a dropoff from Kuemper. He's held down the fort just fine when called upon.
Given how good our defense is, I think I'd rather have Francouz starting and get to keep someone like Nuke than sign Campbell or trade for Gibson and be millions shorter on cap space with no guarantee that either of them are a huge improvement considering both have proven to be a little bit inconsistent.
