I love this signing.
I am curious though, I’ve seen it around people saying “he’s never played more than 28 games” and that’s true. I am curious however, what his situations have been like.

Like has he been hampered by injury? Has he been blocked behind clear starters in other locations as well not just Florida?

Is Stolarz a career backup so far more as a function of ability or opportunity?

Playing behind Gibson and Bobrovsky. I especially like how Stolarz's numbers look for the two seasons in which he played the most. I am admittedly worried that the expectation is probably for both Stolarz and Woll to establish career highs in games played. Then again, those numbers are currently set at just 28 and 25 respectively.

Broke in full time with Anaheim and was stuck behind Gibson, then left this year to join Florida and was stuck behind Bobrovsky.

This is a very good deal with very little risk. Even if he completely falls apart, you can easily change it up in a short period of time.

Should be a fun goaltending duo with him and Woll, and Hildeby and Murray rounds it out pretty nicely.
4 goalie tandem to complement the Core 4. :sarcasm:

I remember seeing him play with Lehigh Valley and being solid, I bet he steals the starting role from Woll who is always injured.
