Solid backup

 

[Esq]

Much better

 

[ploppsdman]

I suspect he will play way more than your typical backup: this is a 1A / 1B situation.

 

[HellebuyckOurSaviour]

Congrats you guys on signing Brossoit, would have loved him to stay in Winnipeg but he definitely played himself out from here. Don't worry, if you need a win, hopefully the schedule has us playing you on the 2nd of a back to back, cause with Comrie in net, we're screwed hahaha

Goodbye Sodapop!

We have an actual NHL #2 netminder now!

 

[hockeydoug]

That box has been checked now.

Happy to see it.

MASSIVE upgrade over Soderblom.

EDIT: Correction over sleepy brain.

MASSIVE upgrade over Commesso.

Commesso is developing in Rockford

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

I'm just happy I won't have to ever hear about how Stauber should be on the Blackhawks again.

I meant Soderblom. Sorry my brain was fried waking up to all this news.

 

[giza]

Nice add! Upgrade and more AHL seasoning for Soda....Stauber likely gone.

 

[clydesdale line]

Annnnnnnd he's injured.

Good to get that taken care of now.

 

[CallMeShaft]

Never like a goalie missing preseason and training camp with injury. Hard to get up to game shape when your thrown into the thick of it (NHL play) after an injury.

But he's only expected to be the backup at least. Easier to shrug one's shoulders about this when Mrazek will be getting most of the opportunities, especially early on.

 

[EddieTheEagle]

Wish him all the best in recovery but don't hate it if our backup goalie doesn't steal us a few games in his absence.

I think Brossoit is a pretty good goalie and would help us get a few too many wins for my liking this season.

Reddit twonks didn't feel this way when I dare to suggest this

I'm not a soda fan at all but this injury will give him a couple games to show us that he has improved from last year.

Rather Waite come out of retirement and play

Maybe.

But it's a new year and I'll give him a fresh start. For a game or 2.

Bring Panger down from the commentary booth and have him play a few games.

 

[Putt Pirate]

If Mrazek goes down early we are toast. More toast than expected I mean.

 

[Paul Allen]

I’m sure KD will be happy to safely have another top 3 pick.

 

[BHawk21]

wonder why he didnt get this fixed earlier. Either way shouldnt matter too much. Soderblom gets a quick 3-4 games in.

 

[Bubba88]

Why shouldn't it be Commesso to get the call? Send Soderblom down and leave him there.
