I honestly don't see anyone picking up Timmy Thomas' and his huge 5 million a year contract, also,
Tim Thomas is 35 years old. I also hope the Bruins wouldn't want anything to do with Christobal Huet, that guy is a brutal goalie.
One surprising rumor which just hit the wire is that the Boston Bruins are shopping last year's Vezina Trophy winner, Tim Thomas. If this is true, is it too early for the Bruins to give up on their down-to-earth goalie, a player they have a very heavy financial commitment to? (5 Million USD per year).
Does Chicago have faith in Cristobal Huet to take them to the promised land? It is possible that these two teams are disappointed enough in their respective goalies to try a switcheroo. But of course, that's easier said than done.[The Rink]
For the record, I'll say that Huet will fold just like his countrymen have done in every conflict since Napoleon.
ReplyDeleteHe is the Achilles Heel of the Hawks. If he shows his true self (not the flukey inconsistently good one that he's shown on and off. Once in Montreal and this year thus far) the Hawks best start scoring 5 goals a game to ensure at least a tie.
Then again, they're better off than my Wings. Alas, I say they should be deadline sellers. Dump payroll and bring on a youth movement around the big three (Zetterberg, Datsyuk, and Lidstrom)
