I hear St. Petersburg needs a new backup. _________________ It's backwards time. |

| Seriously, what happened to that guy? He played awesome in goal in front of a suspect D, and then fell completely apart the year after. Did opposing forwards figure him out? Did he forget how to play? Is it the porn 'stache? What gives? |

Maybe just the curse of Boston goaltenders? Particularly, Blaine Lacer, Jim Carey (and now Andrew Raycroft)?
Interesting however he wasn't placed on waivers. Clemmenson is just as good (if not better) than Raycroft ... they could have easily had him up playing backup, unless they really did want him as a 'mentor' for Justin Pogge?
I don't know ... I'm routing for the B's in the East right now anyway. I'll hop on there bandwagon for the playoffs.

Too slow... just not athletic enough and it seems that he doesn't have good tracking skills to help him cheat a bit to compensate. He's a big positional goalie... and he's just no Giguere. Goaltending post-lockout requires better lateral movement... especially in the East, playing behind those suspect D's and super-talented forwards.
Also, I'm sure confidence has a lot to do with it... and Toronto is not the place to resurrect a fledgling career. _________________ It's backwards time. |

Kyle Wellwood done for remaining balance of the season ... opposite groin being surgically repaired to the one he had fixed last year? Sundin has apparently hung up the skates as well .... As a Leaf? Or for good?
