I'd say Peters gets the boot down to the minors and Grubauer wins the job. The backup spot was a real weakness last year.
Do we think Grubauer is going to beat out Peters for the back up role this season or will he play third fiddle?

Grubauer's contract is one-way this year, so all signs point to Peters getting the boot, or else they wouldn't have given Grubauer that contract.
I think Grubauer is the guy for the job. He got lots of starts and experience in the minors last year... now he is primed to be the backup and step in if Holtby gets hurt.
Grubauer ''grubs'' the reins and runs with the backup job during camp IMO.

Grub will back up Hiltby in my mind. His upside exceeds peters.

Yes, Grubauer is the back-up. I think we won't see Holtby play 70 games this season with Grubauer grabbing about 20 starts.
I can't promise I'll try but I'll try to try.
