Let's find out if HFAvs gets it right. This has been a controversial topic since the UFA opening day.
Bonus: Will Kuemper re-sign in Colorado?

If by better you mean who posts the more impressive stats, it definitely should be Kuemper. Voted equal as these two are more or less equal goalies.
I would rather have Grubauer though and keep the assets.
Instead of such a lame response, what part do you disagree with?of course you did.
Have you watched Grubauer in the playoffs? Sure he won us some games but, he definitely lost us some as well. Before Frank got hurt him and Gru were neck and neck. I don’t think there will be any doubt who our starter will be next seasonInstead of such a lame response, what part do you disagree with?
Is Kuemper really a better goaltender. It's definitely debatable.
It's not a debate outside of this board and even here it's not really a debate. Kuemper is seen as a top 5-7 goalie in the league and Grubauer in the late teens.Is Kuemper really a better goaltender. It's definitely debatable.

Grubs is making $2.4mm more AAV than Kuemper so by that $ metric, Grubs is better.Instead of such a lame response, what part do you disagree with?

I’d lay good wood it’s the exact opposite of what you just wrote. Grubs will be more consistent and Kuemper will demonstrate the higher level of play stealing more games and flashing the higher end saves.Should be about equal to me. Kuemper will be more consistent but I don’t think he will steal games in as dramatic a fashion as Gru did.
I do agree with @TruePowerSlave that it was somewhat a waste of assets though.
Why? Grub’s HDSV% is among the best in the league? Kuemper is good but his size allows for him to make a lot more routine saves while not making the spectacular ones Grub does. Equal talents, very different styles.I’d lay good wood it’s the exact opposite of what you just wrote.

Multiple against Vegas. RS and playoffs. That one against Anaheim to start the season. There was one vsHow many games did Grubauer really steal last year though?
Game 5 against Vegas and game 2 against STL, I’m pretty sure.How many playoff games did he steal? I think there was maybe one.

STL at the end of the year as well. I mean he laid a decent amount of stinkers as well which should less common place with Kuemper though.
Of course. Kuemper won’t need to steal games often, but their strengths are different. I don’t know why that’s such a controversial take.You could probably count the games he stole last year on one hand.
I still think he’s a solid goalie, just that he wasn’t asked to do that a lot.
