Personally, I don't like seeing prospects succeed on other teams after we either didn't resign them or traded them for weak returns. Where's Reto Berra these days? Anyone even remember we got him back for Grimaldi? Or that he was essentially worse than Hutchinson in net? Granted, Rocco's having a career year with just 8 points, but he plays hard. I frankly would rather have him and Connor Brickley back than some of these guys.Cool to see Rocco still in the league.

I hear ya and agree to a point.
While I wasn't a huge fan of him, just cool to see him still in the league at his size.
Didn't win that trade but I guess they just wanted to move on.
Yea, I think Brickley was fine for a 4th line dude.
Worse - he was a goalie the team traded Grimaldi for and actually played for 7 games two years ago, during which he went 0-5 with an atrocious save % and GAA.Berra was a Prospect on this Team?

Man watching these goalies is a real shot of reality. The big saves they make at key times. The way they can get across and stop unsaveable one timers with ease. Our goalies are even further off than I originally thought .
I think Ryan spooner would be ok for the bottom 6. He jsut went downhill in Edmonton.Ryan Spooner and Ty Rattie on Waivers

To be fair, Koskinen was the best (or at the very least in the top3 every season) goalie in the KHL, so he has some track record.31 NHL Games
