Woll is within striking range of campbells numbers. Maybe he should be the starter

We need to make a move for the Flower. Expiring contract, we can get him cheap and he's still a top goalie. This team is going nowhere without goaltending, we cannot afford to waste another year of Matthews/Marner without making a serious push to contend. Please Dubas get it done.

People were praising Mrazek after the Wild game, that he was quieter in net. That’s not what I saw at all, he was over compensating everywhere and he couldn’t control any rebounds as a result, the score flattered him. He is no answer in net, or more correctly, he’s a crap shoot kind of goalie.
Yup, if I'm Keefe I run with Campbell primarily over the next couple weeks to see if he can figure it out. While Mrazek can help shoulder a 1A/1B workload, he is too sporadic to be our starter in the playoffs

If Soup doesn't figure it out soon you go for a goalie. Hopefully Dubas is checking in on MAF and seeing if he's willing to come here

Short samples do not work for goalies.

Mrazek .910 career. Guy is a legit NHL goalie.
Campbell .917 for the season.

You can make this tandem work for sure.

Just to throw a crazy name out there. IF Winnipeg decides to blow this up would they consider trading their goalie who has 2 more seasons after this to UFA status?
 
Changing goalies would be awkward. Who is actually available that would be a clear upgrade to campbell/mrazek? Fleury probably, but of he doesn't want to play in Toronto he won't. Gibson might be available, but the ducks are still fighting for the playoffs. Grubauer is garbage. Matt Murray has the playoff success but that would be a total hail Mary prayer sort of move. The only sort of move I'd make is for kappo kahkonen and even then that's a bit of a prayer as well.
 
It’s fine to say Campbell will get better, but it’s also true, if he doesn’t and Dubas rides him into the playoffs and we lose, everyone excusing Campbell now will second guess not addressing.

I mean we all hope he finds his game, but it’s now been a long slump and mentally he appears lost, which is really concerning. Again mentally fragile and playoff success doesn’t seem like a good bet.

Anton Forsberg and Anthony Stolarz would be my choices if we're actually moving on from part of this tandem.

Fleury would be okay too but you don't really save any cap space there.

Your solution is 2 guys with less of a track record than what is already here. I don't think that's going to work out well cotton.
 
I think we are stuck with both of these guys for the rest of the season so if 1 of them can’t get their act together we are in serious trouble.
Going forward will depend on how we do in the playoffs……but I guess that could be said about the entire core including coaching/management
