Problem with this hypothetical situation is if Vanecek wins the starter job that means Sam lost the job and likely isn’t looking like a guy would use a first to acquire. I’m not saying he isn’t worth it but suggesting a reality to this situation.

Two things to counter this point

1: Edmonton could be very very desperate for goaltending and have Ken Holland as GM
2: Samsonov losing the job doesn't necessarily mean him playing poorly, it may just mean the staff likes Vanecek more.
