They can’t know 100% that they will get Kuemper. IMO, if they miss out on Kuemper GMBM should be fired for ruining the goaltending. What do you guys think?

There wouldn’t be a reason why we won’t get kuemper due to us getting rid of both guys

There's other goaltenders that are available via UFA if Kuemper doesn't sign. Just sign one for 1-year and explore the market again next summer.

Greiss
Jones
Holtby
Halak
Rittich

They could even re-sign Samsonov if they got desperate and they are no longer beholden to the $2M qualifying offer.
