The Oilers may have many issues lack of first line center, 3rd and 4th line studs, 1rst pair defence, but none of these may be as critical as the lack of goaltender depth.
Devan Dubnyk could be the future number one and I believe the oilers are doing alright in bringing him along, only time will tell, and we will be patient.
Khabby is done buy him out or hope he retires.
Olivier Roy and Tyler Bunz may be the answer to our depth issue, but are many years away, I think.
There is rumours of signing Swede Viktor Fasth, and he may be a part of the answer.
There is a possibility on the unrestricted Free agent list below Minor leaguers all under 27 and I believe entering their prime as goalies tend to mature much later then forwards. Is there a gem to be uncovered?
