Money is right. CDS maybe taking a lower salary for some stability. Good backup. When he's hot, he's hot. When he's cold, he's cold. Good deal for Dallas.

Was good for us in Vancouver, I think hes probably better than some of the guys that got 2+M. Hope he does well in Dallas

Good for him getting a 3-year term. He was good for us when Demko went down, wheels started to fall off as his workload increased, but he's the kind of goalie who can sit for a month and then put up a shutout in his next game. Great team guy.

Good signing for player and team. Maybe Casey could have got a bit more elsewhere but he has term, security and will be the undisputed backup on a contender. Plus the lower salary probably offset some by no state income tax.

Best of luck to CDS! He has some similarity with the Texas power grid; if he gets overloaded, he doesn't perform well. But if you load manage and nothing unusual happens, like a strong hurricane or your starting goalie getting injured for half the season, he's good.
