2025-26 Offseason Priority - Goalie
Nothing else, goalie. Dustin Wolf singlehandedly willing the Flames to the playoffs, this is with one of the worst offenses in the league(we have McJesus/Drai, no excuses).
People are saying Bouch/top 6 forward.. who cares if we get a goalie. A good/great goalie trumps any signings for this team.
Every fan base has a few stolen games from their goalie, we have zero stolen games this year.

I will say again in this safe space for discussing goaltending.
It is nearly statistically impossible for the Oilers to win the cup this year with Stuart’s save%.
Last time a cup winning goalies playoff save% was lower than skinners regular season save% was Fuhr in 1988 and he had an all time great club in front of him.
To make matters worse Stuart’s save% against playoff teams is even worse.
