A team with 2 Russian goalies, who could possibly think that is a recipe for winning?
Oh yeah..... the Caps.
Wouldn't be so sure if they're the only ones regretting their goaltending tandem for next season... an injury-prone Finn and a rookie German don't sound too much better, do they Wilson?
What is Seamus Kotyk up to lately?
CA
Kaberle & Grabovski to LA for Brown & Stoll
I'm not too sure about the San jose Sharks choices but it could pay off. I've always thought Nittymaki could be a number one guy and for a shitty Tampa Bay team he did very well. while it may come back to haunt them I'm impressed by Wilsons decesion to stick with the homegrown talent and give him a chance.
