Conditional 7th. Well at least we save a few bucks this way. Dom was a good mascot and did okay here. All the best to him!

In the end, thankfully it all worked out for Dom. He'll get a good chance with NJ because of their current goalie situation.

Ah well, we turned a waiver pickup into a decent backup for two seasons. Good for Louis, wishing all the best

Remember when some people were like "we could get a 3rd rounder for him!" ?
At one point that would have been maybe possible but with like five backup goaltenders under contract and well into the off-season when every other team was kind of set in goal already... no chance.

Hey guys, NJD fan here. Do you think his SV% was product of playing in TBL and he'll be sub .880 in Jersey or he can legitimately post .905~ in NJ?

He was good as a backup, he should have decent numbers when starting very few games. But if your starter goes down and he has to take the job... god bless you.

You'll either have to play shutdown defense or score 5 goals a game to win with him.

Hard to say because he was kinda just average here. I think his 2.88/2.89 GAA the past two years is a pretty consistent indicator of what he should be. No shutouts and very few games giving up only 1 goal, but on the flip side he rarely got shellacked as well. He won't win you games on his own, but he won't lose them either. If you can live with that and not expect more, he should be ok.

He's about an average back-up, so honestly I think you got good value in the trade. He'll make huge saves under pressure, but then he's also good for a softie per game, if not two. Don't expect anything special, but don't expect him to be horrendous either. He's just a, "Yeah, that's an NHL back-up," type goalie.

Domingue starting tonight for NJ.
2 more games and Lightning will have NJ's 2021 7th rounder.

Domingue has given up 10 goals on his last 36 shots against, no guarantees.

So far in 2021 we have our own 7th rounder, Nashville's (Ingram trade) and the Devils's.
I bet Murray's hard just thinking about that lol

Well I'd rather have Ingram and Domingue in Syracuse so Murray better use those picks well.
