What does this mean?!!

 

[GarlicbreadTB]

Wonder if Colorado will look at this.

What does this mean?!!

Makes me wonder if, lip service ignored of all the goalies being positive and getting along, that he didn't react well to the aftermath of his performance

 

[JohanFranzenstein]

Experiment over. Good news is, this dude is definitely getting claimed.

Sarcasm?

 

[Pavels Dog]

Not too surprised. I think his strong preseason was what kept this from happening before the season started. They gave him his last chance, he blew it.

 

[JohanFranzenstein]

Sarcasm?

For once, no. Lots of teams with far better defense are looking for goalie help. I think Husso is less swiss cheese with quality NHL d in front of him.

Could see Colorado taking a swing, possibly Toronto.

I can't speak to Colorado's situation, but the Leafs are DEFINITELY not picking him up.

I hope so and don't think so, too expensive

I doubt it. Maybe there is a trade or something.

 

[lilidk]

It's probably cap related move. Yzerman knows, he I wouldn't be picked

 

[OldnotDeadWings]

This might be the answer to why they started Husso in the opener. They can live with a 22-man roster for Cap benefits, but not for long if one of them is a third goalie who sucks and effectively reduces the roster to 21, and forces the team to carry just 12 forwards. It was important to give Husso some action early after a decent preseason to see if he could not suck. He did and now they can move on to a more useful roster ratio. The roster is not static, injuries and trades will happen, but it's just way better to have 13 forwards full-time rather than having guys on a yo-yo between NHL and GR.

 

[DavidpauseReinbacher]

It means if your not performing Steve will waive u. What's their to wonder about lol

 

[Snuggs]

Been saying it all summer, then he played pretty good in preseason, got a chance and just flopped when the lights turned on.

I'm not surprised, I just hope he gets claimed clearing out a ton of cap for other possible/unlikely moves.

Watson/Kasper call up imo.

 

[Heaton]

No way Husso gets claimed. No good team has the cap space, and no bad team needs a goalie.

 

[JediOrderPizza]

Hopefully with this and Gustafsson it's a sign they are done screwing around with guys playing poorly. Usually they give them half a season to derail our shit.

 

[Henkka]

What does this mean?!!

Makin a cap space, for Watson / forward callup.

 

[Ulysses31]

non drw out in full force on the main board praising their fav gm.

 

[Sentinel]

Good. Let's hope he is claimed.

 

[TheMule93]

Great

 

[Dotter]

Watson on his way up to replace Fischer.

 

[jaster]

This is where I am. My initial reaction was ‘definitely not getting claimed.’ But then I saw a few comments/posts in the world saying he’s going to get claimed and I wondered what I was missing.

He just laid an egg and he is expensive. And has significant injury history. The attraction just can’t be much higher than rock bottom.

 

[RED WINGS STOMP]

Please, someone take him.
