Confirmed with Link: Seravalli- Halak to NYR

[Machinehead]

Absolute legend

 

[Loff]

Solid.

 

[OrangePMD]

Can we sign Ryder and offer Ryder + Halak + 2nd for the league's best players?

We already have Ryder Korczak. So definitely doable.

 

[Alexei Yashvalev]

One of the highest career save percentages of active goalies but he's getting old.

Last year his goals saved above expected was 0.0 so he was precisely league average.

2020-21 GSAE was -8.8 he was bad.
2019-20 GSAE was 8.3 third in the league he was good.

Could be a decent signing for the money.

 

[Cournoyer12]

Good signing!

 

[hackeyman]

Id take Domingue now as AHL depth to pair with Garand

You called it !

Rydahl + Halak + 2nd

Lots of Vancouver fans last season were saying he’s washed up. Hope he still has something in the tank. Domingue is really good insurance though.

 

[Clark Kellogg]

Should have just had Henrik come out of retirement for one year so he can lift the cup at the end of his career.

 

[Osminator]

1 year contract is very good. With the NYR so close to the cap, around $1m would have been nicer, but NYC being an expensive place, oh well.

Hoping he only starts 20-22 games this year to manage Igor's minutes (and of course if there's any injury) and preferably against non-Conference teams on the road.

 

[Cournoyer12]

Solid back-up can give you 20-25 games and more importantly win them, also Dominque for insurance. For Igor’s sake limit him to 55 games, too much wear and tear on his hips and knees with the ridiculous workload. Like to see him in your nets for at least 10 years!

 

[Machinehead]

I ain't kidding tho

 

[NYRFANMANI]

This is a beautiful back-up, that can live up to demanding games.

Low key honored. Halak was a nightmarish opponent at times.

He's old, but hell, goalies can do it.

 

[frozenrubber]

Martin Jones got 2M.

Halak for 1.5M (w/ 250k being performance bonuses) is *chefs kiss*

I think only $50,000 is performance bonus. $250,000 is signing bonus.

 

[SingnBluesOnBroadway]

Really savvy the way Drury managed the backup situation. Moving G for picks (one being Bryce McConnell-Barker) and then signing a better fit for less money is really well done.

I will add that adding Domingue is an upgrade on Kinkaid, and good insurance if Shesty or Halak (who is older) need to miss some time. Had no interest in him as a backup, but to have a number 3 who can at least look competent in a playoff series is a huge luxury. Also they can avoid overwhelming Garand (the future #2) in Hartford.

 

[Draft Guru]

Looked very solid tonight. Sign me up for 20 more starts just like that.

Much better than pre-season.

Same for Carpenter.

You have to respect any player who gets stabbed in the head with a skate blade and walks it off.

Huge upgrade over AG and able to bring the mentality required to backup. Great, important signing.

Guy knows his role and is not a delusional prick.

Probably going to play twice next week with 2 b2b's?
