That's a good question. I don't think anybody good. Best you're going to be able to do right now is some cast off like Murray. Possibly there will be a salary dump goalie closer to deadline if some team wants to add but can't due to cap space but at that time what's the point? 

Options for 2022?  The team is in a serious goalie hole at the moment.  Playing better in front of them helps make it a more desirable destination, but they need to add talent and evaluate this year to see about finding someone for the forseeable future.

I'm wondering if the Sabres should just do what Edmonton did a few years ago with Koskinen and grab some vet Euro goalie who is dominating in some Euro league and give him a chance?

Strauss Mann (23yrs) is currently near the top of the SHL with .929 sv% in 9gp. 

Eetu Anttila (22yrs) is currently in Liiga with a .933 sv% in 6gp

Nick Malik (19yrs) is currently in Liiga with a .926 sv% in 15gp

If only we had a coach who was more familiar with Europe... maybe with a Swiss passport or something....

Perfect. Bring any of them in. At worst it doesn't work out and you've lost basically nothing. At best it makes the Sabres better and then you can trade him or Anderson or Tokarski at the deadline. There's really no reason not to do it.

Mann was the starting Goalie for University at Michigan through last season, He and Portillo know each other well

If Tokarski is injured what are we looking at? A Ukko-Pekka - Dell tandem? A Dell - Houser tandem?

Does it force gmka to make a trade to bring someone in?

UPL & Dell would likely go Thursday

UPL has more  NHL raw material than Tokarski or Dell.

I don’t think he’s near ready, but he has a better chance of catching lightning in a bottle than either.

I think he’s highly likely to implode, but he can’t be worse than what we’ve got from Toker in half his recent games. And Dell every game.

I remember joking when Scott Wedgewood was on waivers and Arizona picked him up that he was the new tank commander. 

All he's done is go 3-3 with a 2.45 gaa and .929 save %. 

Goalies are weird man.
