Yeah, stopgap until Koochie is back, then hold him as a 3rd goalie for a while, if Andersen ever comes back we can just throw him back on waivers. Which is perfectly fine given the prices and paychecks of the goalies on the trade market.A stopgap of a move if there ever was one, but can’t complain about free. They needed another body, really anyone that could suit up behind Raanta.

I hope he’s a puck stopperI hope he's a gap stopper.
GOALIE
And we want him for free!Nice. We don’t want Elvis, we want the guy you benched Elvis for.
No they don’t they will waive him if they need to. Wouldn’t rule out Martin taking Raanta’s spot as the backup if he shows he can make saves. Wouldn’t read into stats too much on that horrible Columbus teamKind of tells me that Andersen is done. Because we have to carry him the rest of the year and I don't think the Canes want to carry 4 goalies on their roster.
And even if Martin goes unclaimed, $765K is able to be completely buried in the AHL.No they don’t they will waive him if they need to. Wouldn’t rule out Martin taking Raanta’s spot as the backup if he shows he can make saves. Wouldn’t read into stats too much on that horrible Columbus team
The way I read the rule, they can waive him but if no team picks him up, the Canes have to keep him on the roster. We have to keep him for 30 days or 10 games anyway now.No they don’t they will waive him if they need to. Wouldn’t rule out Martin taking Raanta’s spot as the backup if he shows he can make saves.

We tried that once (or rather the goalie himself did), that went ugly fastFeed him BoJangles till he makes walrus.
Well Freddy ain’t gonna be back in 10 games anywaysThe way I read the rule, they can waive him but if no team picks him up, the Canes have to keep him on the roster. We have to keep him for 30 days or 10 games anyway now.
He has to play 10 games, Now I'm not sure if that means a goalie too but the rule saysWell Freddy ain’t gonna be back in 10 games anyways
I might make said thing (if created) live...So who’s going to bite the bullet and create today’s GDT?
And if they have a desperate need of a roster spot, they can put someone on IR. I was going to say Kochetkov, but he's on IR to make space for Martin.The way I read the rule, they can waive him but if no team picks him up, the Canes have to keep him on the roster.
