I may be the only one who doesn't remotely want Swayman. I just don't think spending that kind of money on any goalie works. Cleary Georgie wasn't the right budget move but I think that move might be out there yet.
how many goalies have we've been through in the past 8 seasons? I'm with you and also subscribe to the 'don't overspend on goalies' but I'm starting to get PTSD and we have the most unpredictable tabdemin the league at the moment. With Annunen now and Nabokov on the way you can have peace of mind (and one of the best goalie tandems in the league for the next ~4-5 years at around 9M total. With a rising cap, that's some nice peace of mind.I may be the only one who doesn't remotely want Swayman. I just don't think spending that kind of money on any goalie works.

It's a moot point but really, going cheap on the goaltending and settling for average talent only works if the team in front of those goalies is talented enough and deep enough to overcome their shortcomings. The Avs are talented enough (arguably) but they ain't deep enough by any measure. They have to rethink their approach to goaltending because this simply isn't good enough.I may be the only one who doesn't remotely want Swayman.
