Nope.
He's dressed as the backup for both Korpisalo and Bobrovsky about 4 or 5 times, but has not stepped on the ice for them during game time once. I expect Korpisalo will play tomorrow night with Kinkaid as the backup.
Even I figured they'd give him two or three games, but they were fighting for their playoff lives and played Bobrovsky more often than not.
I'm now paranoid that we'll have to take back some stupid Blue Jacket contract with term remaining (think some kind of Dalton Prout type) later on down the road, in exchange for them doing us the favor of letting us dump him there. We could have just kept him and told him you're going upstairs or you'll dress sometimes as the backup for Cory or Mac, but you won't play again unless whoever you're backing up for gets injured and you have to come in.
What in the hell was the reason for trading for him then unless maybe they thought Korpi was dinged up or something.
