    Those were my thoughts. Wasn't sure if this was real or just due to poor play, and really, we shouldn't be guessing about that.

    Jarry will likely remain in the AHL and get even more playing time while Desmith fills in as the back up in PIT for the meantime.

    I'd love to see Jarry get a crack.
    What would be the value of putting in Murray? Your backup goalie is supposed to eat back to backs and blowouts.

    I tweaked the thread title... RIP followed by a name should be reserved for the situation in which someone has actually died.

    Much better title indeed, although I would clarify it with the word "NHL" in there because his career will probably continue in Europe...

    As Brexit and the Donald have shown, Europe is pretty much irrelevant these days so I didn't bother. Go back to your pickled herring foreigner! Make Dobber Great Again!

    Florida claims Niemi.

    Wonder what that means for Bobby Lu injury?

    Niemi is there to keep the seat warm for now. What happens later when he's on waivers again doesn't really matter.
