Anyone have an update on this guy? Is he dealing with a major injury or something?

He's been battling injury, yes.

He got called up a week or two ago, never played though and went back down.


hadn't heard he was hurt again since then, but not sure.

Despite good minor league numbers, the guy has no real NHL value and never will. Which is why a team as desperate for goalies as TB is let him go...

Dont understand. His one cup of coffee with TB, posted 2W and a 1.00 GAA. I just don't get why Tampa gave up on him.

I own him in a deep 16 team league. My goal tending is set up for a couple years still. Should I just out-right drop him? I own Howard/Anderson/Luongo.

Keep him, you won't regret it.

I don't know how much room you have in your minors, but I would reccomend that you hang onto him. It takes goalies a lot longer to be given the opportunity to shine. You need only look at Anderson to see what I'm talking about.

The answer to this question would be easier if we knew who you would pick up instead.

He'll be 27 to start next season. It basically boils down to injury concerns and the fact that he missed his window. Anything's possible but I really don't expect him to ever stick in the NHL.

Assuming the NHL comes back as it used to exist last season, does Desjardins have a chance to be the back-up goaltender in Montreal this year? Would he become the starter if Price was injured for any length of time?
