I don't think 3.75M is too much for Khabi. I am sure there are teams willing to pay that salary for the purpose I have mentioned. I just think the Oilers didn't really want to trade him or ask too much in return.
I don't know what you meant by back up for Dubnyk. This year or next year. If this year, I am sure Yan Dannis would be a fine back up. Next year, I am not completely sold on Dubnyk as a #1 goalie, I think he's a career backup at best. I could be wrong and I love to be proven wrong but I think we still need a #1 goalie in the future.
Anyway, we can debate this topics for a long long time and it wouldn't go anywhere so let's stop
. I am looking forward to next year and see if we can make it to the dance again.
