This.

Don't like it for two reasons-
1. Really like Tokarski, couldn't wait to have him as backup next year.
2. He's worth more than just a straight swap.

What the fuck is going on?

Didn't SFY let Desjardins go?

Riku is so inconsistent ... Crunch can't be happy about this.

So whos going to be where?

I mean we had to expect something given how craptastic Garon has been.

But this? Garon waived and CD called up?

Pretty sure Garon is out the door.

For those of you talking about Vasilevsky, Janus, etc. Just a reminder that (given our team's recent success with collegiate players and his current numbers) we also have quite the dark horse prospect in Adam Wilcox. He may fly under the radar, but I believe we'll see him in the NHL one day.

As for this trade, it is a bit odd, really. Maybe a shakeup to help Syracuse? Otherwise, maybe, as has been suggested, they go with Helenius (and Nagle?) in AHL, waive/move Garon, and Lindback/Desjardin in NHL?

Not saying I'm a fan of the move and I know everyone here has always been high on Tic, but in all honesty, I never really felt like he had what it takes to be a real #1 at the NHL level. Besides his W's, his stats have always been just good, not great, at the AHL level and while he has the whole "shows up big for big games" thing, he's also always had a way of showing up average at average games. With so many other options in net (Lindback, Vasilevsky, Janus, Garon, Helenius, Wilcox in a few years), realistically Tic was expendable. That said, I wish we would've gotten something more along the lines of a draft pick, but it is what it is.

Regarding Desjardins, let's not forget the guy was awesome for us the last time we had him. Again, not justifying the deal, only saying that the deal is done so let's look at what we're dealt.
