Huh?
Not sure what games you were watching........
I don't know about horrible, but I thought the same thing when listening to colour analysts on SNET, TSN, or wherever talking about how well Khabibulin had been playing. He looked shaky in every game so far, and it seems like he's really having trouble picking up the puck around the net. He has great numbers, but he hasn't looked good enough for me to be comfortable seeing him in net so far this year.
As for him being placed on IR, I'm not at all concerned about the drop-off from him to Danis, nor am I worried that we won't re-sign him because of it (I would hope they weren't thinking of doing this at all to begin with). The only real part about his injury that I find disappointing about his injury is how it may effect his trade value and the possibility of actually getting something for him at the deadline.
