This has the potential to be a very bad contract.
Now if only Disco Dan and Ron Francis could figure that out.As a Kraken fan I’m happy with this. He’s our best goalie.
I'm somewhat surprised they didn't buy him out this past summer. I've gotta think the playoff berth the year before (which had nothing to do with Grubauer) may have bought him another year. Maybe even particularly because he won a playoff round against the defending cup champions.The bad contract is Grubauers.

I can't see him back next year, unless it's in an LTIR role. Then again, if he has a good season (which I would be convinced is nothing more than an up year/one off renaissance comeback year) maybe they try and get one more year of out of him.
