With Carolina not having a minor league affiliate, this brings up an interesting question. Do they call up Kochetkov and offer Halak to replace if they choose to sign him?Don't believe he can play in a regular season game under a PTO.......
One of the to ever do it.Man. I just looked at EP and saw he has 10 straight seasons above .900
Overall 16 seasons above .900 and only one below.
Big respect.

Reports are that it's not an injury, it's a medical condition, but very serious none the less.To me it tells me that Andersens injury is serious and they are looking at a long term 3rd stringer, not a back up replacement.
What did that habs 2nd rounder from back in the day ever turn into?Hopefully Michael Ryder comes out of retirement so we can have some trade proposal fun
Eh, I always thought of him as 1A guy, which is fine, but it means you need a 1B to play 30 or so games. Also I think Saros is going to keep the <6’ club going for a while.He's actually kind of underrated, career .915, 53 shutouts, 5 wins away from 300, and probably one of the last sub 6-foot goalies.
Can’t remember what year 2nd it was, but as Ryder and Halak only played 2 seasons together as Habs, 2006-2008, I’m assuming it had to be one of 3… 2007, 2008, or 2009What did that habs 2nd rounder from back in the day ever turn into?
Recalled to Raleigh. But given Raanta's injury history, having a 3rd goalie ready to go while Andersen is out is wise.Where is Pyotr?
Big fan of his. Surprised he is not a full time NHLerRecalled to Raleigh. But given Raanta's injury history, having a 3rd goalie ready to go while Andersen is out is wise.
I think Kochetkov has a good future, but given he was still waiver exempt this season it made sense to keep him in the AHL as the third option.Big fan of his. Surprised he is not a full time NHLer
I would take him on my oilers in a heartbeat. I think he's in the dostal range of prospects.I think Kochetkov has a good future, but given he was still waiver exempt this season it made sense to keep him in the AHL as the third option.
