Peter Budaj - 98,3 % after 3 games

[KINGS17]

Bartosak is hurt. Will miss probably another month or so. They signed Ray Emery on a PTO to be the backup.

Bartosak will be the starter when he comes back starting about 2/3rds of the games, IMO.

Don't I feel like the ****ing ***hole?

It's so funny to see him doing well after last year for the Jets' farm team he had 0-9-6, 3.55GAA, 0.888SV%

Good for him though, I always felt bad when he got yet another loss
Great AHL mentor

Think of all the cap space the Kings will have when they trade Quick and bring him up.

Some people on this board are still expecting this guy to play on the Kings this year...

a bit rushed...

Another zero game on Saturday.

Cap Space is a superstar in the NHL

4th SO in 9th game.
Leader in GAA (1,31), SAV% (94,7), W (7), 4th place in minutes.

I wish, he will play another game in NHL.

That's wishing injury to Quick & Enroth, I'm afraid. I always felt sorry about how few minutes Bernier and Jones got to play here, and I was a fan of Scrivens (now the Oilers destroyed him), but backup prospects are even worse for Budaj. The days of Fukufuji and 7 goalies in 3 weeks are over for the Kings, fortunately.

No. Im not praying for injuries to other guys. Not exactly in Kings jersey. There is still a option, some team will grab him. Its sure, in King team he doesn't have big chance. But in others he could.

Wouldn't be the first time the Kings org helped a goalie get a job. I see what you're saying.

 

[PJ Kings Hockey]

The problem these goalies have once they leave the Kings is they can't take Bill Ranford with them.

ETA: Gotta give props to the new AHL goalie coach, too.

Who are the others?

Who are the others?

Scrivens, Jones, Bernier all Kings backups, all became NHL 'starters'. Zatkoff became a backup for Pitt. It's beyond the normal team-to-team goalie bouncing imo
