I think in the Columbus game they mentioned that they were basically calling up their AHL goalie anytime they wanted the starter to rest. We might do something similar where we don't put Primeau on waivers, but whenever we want plan to play the backup we just call up Dobes, then after the game send him back down.

It's basically a way of having the AHLer be the teams backup without having him not play for long stretches. It really sucks for the NHL backup who basically is getting skipped over so probably not a long term option.

I guess this means he has close to zero value right now, which is pretty sad for the guy. I really hope he'll be able to build his confidence back up.
Its not a question of confidence, but of technique. Primeau plays the entire game on his knees. Once down, he has no mobility in the net. His technique may have some success in the AHL, but against NHL competition, it just doesn't cut it.
