A little more than I expected, but only Dean truly knows the market. He'll be fine and should be good for about 15 games.

 

[HeadInjury]

I think they have to offer a little more here since the player knows he's not going to get the opportunity to play much.

 

[gnarls barkley]

look at the market, I think it's a fair price

Lindback @ 875k
Greiss @ 1.5
Neuvirth @ 1.6

 

[TheBannermen]

Can anyone clarify the waiver situation with Berube?

 

[johnjm22]

I follow Buffalo area sports closely. Enroth is a good goaltender. He'll put up much better numbers playing behind a quality defense. Good signing.

 

[funky]

Don't mind it at all. Gives our youngsters an extra year to perk, can play for a longer stretch should Quick go down, doesn't cost a ton, and will have a better defense in front of him then in Buffalo

 

[Reclamation Project]

I was expecting a six figure goalie though. No big deal. He's serviceable and LA will make him look like a world beater. I've seen him more than a few times and I thought he was solid.

Berube will have to clear waivers to go back down in late september.

 

[Telos]

The cup is ours! Decent signing.

 

[HeadInjury]

Can anyone clarify the waiver situation with Berube?

He is not waiver exempt any longer. But he isn't ready by all accounts.

 

[BigBrown]

He was fantastic for Sweden last year but fairly mediocre this past spring for them. Wasn't very good in the NHL this past season. On the bright side he's young and has some upside.

 

[Captain Mittens*]

The Enroth is ours!

 

[KopitarFAN]

He is not waiver exempt any longer. But he isn't ready by all accounts.

Most say Barto will be better as well. Could see him taking more starts next year.

 

[DocWest]

I'm good with this. Nice signing

 

[KingsFan7824]

If he signed for 2 years, it's probably under a million on average. Signs for 1 year, a higher dollar amount for this one year. Lombardi probably wasn't offering a 2 year deal. Sort of like the Mitchell situation back in 2010. Whoever else it was, Washington and SJ I think, probably offered more for 1 year, but Lombardi went 2 years(I think), a lower cap hit, but more overall money.

 

[Reclamation Project]

LA loves those reclamation projects. Enroth will probably end up making bank somewhere next year.

 

[Reaper45]

And we're done.

 

[Jason Lewis]

Can anyone clarify the waiver situation with Berube?

He only has to clear if he makes the 23 man roster out of camp. Otherwise he can be sent down to start the year without having to be subject to them.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Yay.

Being from Buffalo, yes. Although his numbers from Buffalo were a tad inflated because when you get like 50 shots against a night your save percentage is bound to look nice.

 

[Ron*]

And we're done.

We better not be with how our defense looks right now.

 

[goosh]

Enroth was my #2 preference after Greiss, whom LeBrun said the Kings went hard after. So no complaints here.

Was about to say the same, my top three were Griess, Enroth, and Neuvirth.

 

[HYORI 1963]

Very good numbers, especially having played in Buff, for most of his career.
