Who's Montreal's back-up?

Al Montoya

Montoya, one of the better proven backups in the league IMO

Welcome to LA.

 

[hockeyheadlines]

I wouldn't be surprised if San Jose pick him up.

Still remember when he went on a good streak a few years ago the asking price from some was a first and a god prospect

 

[CanadienShark]

SJ should put a claim in.

 

[Ana Crusis]

Dell > condon

Zatkoff > condon

The underlined tells everything that needs to be known about this post.

Except his 3.01 GAA and .899 SV% a few years ago.

He's a solid back-up, I'm just tugging chains. I don't think he's severely better than Condon though.

A few years ago Mike Condon was a total nobody most Habs fan had never heard from. Youre probably confusing him with Carey Price.

Asking hab fans is he a upgrade on zatkoff ?

Dell isnt better than Condon as much as I wish he was.

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

He'll get claimed in a heart beat. He's a young, decent backup.

 

[Skobel24]

I think he'll pass through. Nobody needs a goalie at this point.

 

[bigwillie]

It wouldn't surprise me if the Sharks picked him up, but on the same note, it wouldn't surprise me if they passed either. Doug Wilson seems intent on seeing how Dell does before making any moves, although I could also see him thinking Condon for free is too good to pass up and grabbing him.

 

[SomeDude]

Pens may claim him as a stop-gap until Murray is back, but I don't see the point. I doubt he's much of an upgrade from Jarry.

 

[Yog S'loth]

I just can't imagine San Jose passing him by.

Minimum-wage, one-year contract for a guy who's a recently proven 20-game winner in the NHL?

How could you not?

575,000 cap hit. For me, it's a guarantee claim by most of the teams mentioned : Pens, Sharks.

Well then it goes to sharks based on standings

 

[KingCanadain1976]

kings might be interest they would save 375k in goalies

 

[rhinoshawarma]

he'll get taken, unfortunately. Thank you Condon best of luck

Good backup who got thrown headfirst into the fire last year when Price got injured.
Needs to rebuild his confidence, but other than that...
