Well shit, what the hell are we going to bitch about now? Good goalie, good term, good price…gosh? It’s as if there actually was a plan the entire GD time.

 

[Dirty Dog]

Awesome!

 

[enthusiast]

Probably the best move we could realistically hope for

i wish I could set my bar as low as you have on this on literally anything

Adams + Analytics dept are killing it. Not overpaying but filling specific holes with value signings.

atta boy KevYYYYn

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS f***ING YESSSS

 

[Ralonzo]

Wanted this guy instead of Kasdorf in 2015, took some time but there you go.

 

[is the answer jesus]

Good. We may have one of the worst goalie situations in the league, but at least Comrie is a guy who can step in and play some games.

 

[Dubi Doo]

He's got potential to be pretty good. If our defense can progress throughout the season, then that should inflate his stats. This is his opportunity to show he can handle a higher workload.

 

[Club]

lol if Rayzor messes up his name calling him 'Commie'

Your threshold to complain seems very low

 

[Chainshot]

Nice signing.

Also, done is better than perfect.

That’s a great point! And something Adams REALLY messed up on last year

 

[Deevo]

Can someone explain why we are so excited about this guy?

 

[Sabre Dance]

I’m guessing he’s going to get the heavy work load. Likely came here for the opportunity to be the guy. Hopefully it works out for everyone.

 

[BritSabre]

Yes. Best of what's left

10-5-1 record and .920 sv% on a non playoff team last year. World better than anything we have seen recently

 

[jc17]

Can someone explain why we are so excited about this guy?

He's played more than 10 games in the NHL and maintained a save% above .900

 

[Ehran]

Can someone explain why we are so excited about this guy?

Did you notice the goalies we had last year starting games?

He's not one of them, and has a chance to be slightly better than what we had.

 

[Puppa2Miller]

Well we now know what we are working with. I don't have high degree of confidence, but hoping for the best.

I think UPL seizes the job once the inevitable injury hits at the NHL level, until an injury seizes him anyway

 

[BritSabre]

Can someone explain why we are so excited about this guy?

He's plays in goal and he's contracted to the Buffalo Sabres. It's been an endangered species for over 12 months
