Chad Johnson is my #1 choice, all things considered.
Why is he not getting more love? This bums me out. He's a good goalie and I'm a big fan. He'd be cheap and he'd likely be thrilled to duke it out with Domingue for starts. That's a very heathy, very tight competition right there. These two could really keep each other on their respective games. I actually really love he idea of Louie and Ochocinco as our battery in goal. I kinda think it sucks that Chayka wasn't like "We like Chad, we want Chad, we're going to do what we can to sign Chad". That's the quote I want.
No matter what happens it can't be as bad as the year Don Maloney tried saddling us with a three-headed goalie monster of David Aebischer, Alex Auld, and Michael Tellqvist.

I'm ok with Chad being the backup, I'm ok with letting Domingue go.
I want one of:
Lehner
Nilsson
either of the Buffalo goalies would be fine by me.
I'd even accept Raanta if it were cheap and didn't cost us much
Get Lehner, pick up Nygren, and get them to room with DeAngelo. It'd be perfect.
Was wondering what the Lehner thing was. Welp, scratch him off the list.

Lehner is terrible on breakaways (and in the shootout), which will be a problem as long as Playfair coaches this D. Nilsson had a better save percentage at even strength.
Nilsson's numbers on a garbage team do stand out. Why is Buffalo letting him walk?

His numbers before this season were "deplorable"
Can have him work with our goaltending coach... oh wait.
