Labbée got a confirmation from Habs that Kinkaid will be Price's back up.

That's a solid move

Waite managed to get Antti Niemi to put up a .929 save % in 19 games his first year here, I don't think he'll have a problem getting Kinkaid to put up a .910 save % as backup.

Holy that's huge. Good on MB for going for it.

 

[NotProkofievian]

IT'S HAPPENING

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Needed a veteran back-up. Kinkaid is fine. Just needs to better than Niemi which is not a high set bar.

 

[Habaneros]

SO THEY MATCH AN OFFER SHEET...but they will also take trade offers on him...hmmm

 

[Adam Michaels]

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I am happy with this signing.

 

[Deebs]

Oh snap...

Work out a deal, then.

 

[waffledave]

I like Kinkaid as a backup. He can fill in as a starter if needed.

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

It is obvious. It's more for those who are against signing Gardiner.

So since he played with shits partner means hes worth 7years for 7m?

yeah... no

 

[Adam Michaels]

MB targeting someone worth targeting!

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Oh damn! MB going for it!

Ahhhhhoooooo, please .....

HFBoards needs a dislike button...lol

 

[Habidelidoo]

Canes would match, but they do entertain trade conversation? Makes little sense to me.
