I like trading for Swayman and reworking his contract to give him more money to entice him. The Bruins low balled him on his recent contract and I think we could do better.

It might not be popular, but what about Samsonov? Didn’t he sign a one year deal with Toronto? Maybe he could be had, lord knows he gave us fits as a capital. However, he is in a slump as well. One teams trash……..

I don't think the Bruins are likely to move either of their guys for us.

There is a Sunday 6PM game with Washington in the house. Someone needs to be wearing pads tomorrow as the #2.

Fug man. I do genuinely feel bad for raanta. Perets it is I would think.

The end of an era, man...

Like most endings, it wasn't very pretty and probably came at the wrong time. But, man, it was a fun ride!

Pour one out for Father Finn!!!

I think something happened in that Tampa game and he never recovered.

Put Burns in goalie pads. Play the whole game empty net.

He was bad most of the season. Once Tampa shelled him, I think his confidence was basically shattered.

I don't buy into the injury theory(although it's possible). I suspect perhaps the twilight of his career descended upon him rather quickly.

so from what the NHL Network said, if he clears waivers he’s still eligible on the roster to play 10 games or 30 days consecutively. He could be backup today while we sort out if we are bringing Perets up or someone else in.

Weekes says we are likely to recall Perets though. 
 

He’s played 11 games for ECHL Norfolk Admirals, 2.38 .916 not sure win loss.

I don't think you waive him with the intent to bring him back. 

That chapter is over.
