While playing for a team that won 46 games in the regular season, Grubauer posted a record of 17-14-4, with a save percentage (SV%) of .895 and a goals-against average (GAA) of 2.85. These stats, while not terrible, might fall short of expectations for a goaltender with a $5.9 million annual salary for the next four years.
If Grubauer can replicate his playoff success in the upcoming regular season, the Seattle Kraken can breathe easy about their goaltending situation. However, if he struggles to maintain his previous form, the Kraken lack internal solutions to address their goaltending concerns.
