Roster Building (& Training Camp) XXIII: Re-signings, Re-considerations, Recriminations

[To Be Determined]

The "Gleb!" thing always made me think of The Simpsons (like literally everything else).

 

[Lempo]

But anyways I think I was first with Gregory McGegory.

 

[DaveG]

Yeah I thought it was just you making it up

nope. Been a reference since day 1 - I think LakeLivin is the guy that put the motherf***er in there though

Martin waived. Wasn't he on a one-way? It wouldn't shock me if Boston took a look based on how he played against them in his first game as a Cane last year, and the Swayman drama.

?????, is this a cap savings move?

Isn't he the 3rd goalie option after Pyotr and Freddie? Who else do we have if one of those 2 get hurt (unless they are going to pick up another vet from another waiver)

knowing Boston just claimed a guy from Vancouver, we might be trying to slide him through waivers before Boston realizes what they have or dont have.

we arent going to carry 3 goalies all season.

I'm surprised anyone thought there was a plan other than waiving him and putting him in Chicago. You just gotta hope you sneak him through and that you won't need to rely on him as much this year.

and if doesn't clear odds are we'll just go out and claim whatever Quad A guy happens to be on waivers and try to get them through to the A anyway.

Nobody carries 3 goalies for a full season anymore.

Sure but given Freddie’s health the last few years, a 3rd NHL type goalie is probably needed.

No doubt, that's why we have him. But looking at our cap situation, short of putting Fast on LTIR, which I assume they want to avoid, he wasn't going to stick around. If/when injuries happens and if Martin isn't here anymore, they'll just call up Perets and look for the next Martin.

Bruins claimed Patera from Vancouver about an hour ago, so they're probably not in the market to claim Martin right now.

 

[spockBokk]

I think the fact that Martin is on a 1way deal (pretty sure), will scare some teams off.

 

[Lempo]

Martin is on a 1way deal (pretty sure)

f*** you, Washington Capitals.
