F-ing get up and hunt! Cmon Todd!
We are still just discussing backups. The plan to platoon Copley and Talbot was misguided in the 1st place. The Kings have blown out the cap and still dont have a valid starting goalie. Thats why the PLD decision was so bad. The proper thing to do was trade or sign an FA starting goalie, and then figure out what you have left to get yourself a center.Talbot still has enough in him to platoon. If he had only played 13 less games it would have made him more fresh for the playoffs. Even if Talbot would re-sign for 1 year and expect to be the backup, you still would have to pay him minimum $2 million. If you resign Rittich, he will command at least a multi-year deal at $1.5 million minimum per year.
