    I think they will hit the market and sign the cheapest backup they can find. With lots of goalies pouring into the market, they'll find one willing to do 700k or something.

    None of the above? Maybe they sign someone for cheap.

    Lars Johansson was worse than Jeff Glass all season long and Glass has another year on his contract, so I doubt Chicago is bringing Johansson back.

    But I don't see either one being a full-time backup, so I think they sign someone from UFA market. There should be some good ones available for them, there usually is.

    Another vote for a cheap(ish) back-up.

    If it's not internal with Lars Johnsson or something, then I could see a guy like Andres Nilsson, or even Peter Budaj getting a call.

    Yeah... CHI has to sign somebody. They've only got Crawford & Glass under contract.

    Their 4 goalies right now are:
    1. Crawford
    ...
    2. Glass (1yr, age 31)
    3. Johansson (UFA, age 29)
    4. Carruth (UFA, age 25)

    They could actually be a team that swing a deal with Vegas - if Vegas takes 4+ goalies.

    My guess is they trade for one of the extra goalies Vegas claims. Gudelevskis???
