Maybe as a wakeup call to come to camp in shape He will be waiver folder if not and i could see teams claiming him due to the development hes had and if he leaves for half price worth a shot if i was a team in need of a backup. I think they sign a cheap vetern and he ll have to beat him out loser hit waiver like what happen for 13th forward andreoff vs cracknell

Goalies NEVER get claimed on waivers. Just does not happen. No one needs a goalie in early October they have already set their goaltending charts.

And if anyone did (had two long term goalie injuries or something) there are much better options than Berube, who has been average at best in AHL, that always appear on waivers.

No idea what your talking about in half-price. Re-entry waivers are gone, no more half-priced waiver pickups.

Given the salary retained in the Lucic deal, they have flexibility to spend $1.5M or so on a decent backup.

EDIT: Or given that the Oilers just acquired Talbot, Ben Scrivens? $2.3M is probably a little more than they want to spend on a backup, but they can wait and see how the off-season plays out into July, and if they have room, go for it.

Most Oil fans would send you guys Scrivens back at 50% salary for a pick honestly. We're still hoping for another new goalie to go with Talbot.
 
Well if we wanna use the same logic that most are using on here, Bernier got us Gaborik. And we know how that turned out.
 
Jean-François Bérubé is no replacement of Jones. He will be the backup goalie for Quick in 2015-2016 and will contribute to a 3rd conquest of the Cup in 5 years, he is ready for the big league.

Ehm... what? First you're saying he's no replacement, then he's suddenly ready for the big league. What is it now?
