Timing.
Obviously Pickard would not have cleared today. Several teams are in need.
And the only reason Florida bit was that there was a connection between Niemi and their GM.
I thought maybe Vegas would claim if anyone (Subban and Fleury both injured). Did not see this coming.
Gotta think something will be done now. Either a signing or trade.

It's crazy that Niemi was claimed by Florida in part because we injured their goalie. JR should give Sheary a bonus

I second the idea of Hutchinson. He's stuck in the AHL right now too, that would be a solid option.

I've heard good things about Desmith.
The back to backs are going to kill us though if we can't get a realistic back-up.

Enroth is somewhere in Europe. I want to say KHL. There was just a video of him getting suspended for punching a player that knocked him over.

So the RUSSIAN hockey league is more concerned about player safety than the NHL?

Well, I did not see this happening...nice.
Downside is that the organization is going to have to add a goaltender for WBS/Wheeling at some point...though it does clear a contract spot without needing it to be replaced (no reason for whatever goalie is added to the minors to be on anything other than an AHL/ECHL deal).

I mean if you are really just giving them away I would glad those tickets off your hands lol. I'm assuming you just meant that no one wants to buy them though because it's the Jets hahaha

You think DeSmith play tonight? Edmoton has been awful so it might be a good place for him to start, no?

Do you think he should see his first NHL action against Connor McDavid? I know Edmonton is having a rough stretch but they're not Pittsburgh. Most teams don't have weird trouble with random no-name goalies like we do.
EDIT: *looks at schedule, sees Winnipeg up after Edmonton*
Meh, well, I guess he'll just git lit up a little by Laine instead. Still a better draw than the McOilers.

What a terrible image.
He won't start until the 28/29 back to back. Minnesota and then the Jets. Neither is doing amazingly well, both are out west and Minnesota is Penguins style healthy so he might get that start.

Ah, I just assumed Edmonton and Winnipeg were B2B and didn't notice that dates. Yeah, that makes sense.
