Islanders Sign Mikhail Grabovski & Nikolai Kulemin

[Johnnydollaz89]

Hey JR the Isles have to overpay guys if they're going to sign them. These signings are so much better than last years Paul Marc Bouchard & Peter Regin it's not even close. Johnson is the backup goalie & they added Cory Conacher to. I hope the two European goalies they drafted develop. It would be great to finally have some depth in goal.

Agreed. Solid moves right here and I bet Grabo and Kulemin are very happy to be together on a team.

Hopefully Halak is solid, if not, Johnson is a very good backup goalie.

I get wanting to play with a buddy, but I always worry what happens to the locker room when one of said buddies goes into chateau bow wow. If I were a GM, I'd steer clear.


But then again Richards and Carter have won two cups in 3 years, so what do I know?

Always important to have someone who can help you sneak back in after curfew and cover for you during bed checks.

That's why Kessel and Bozak just work so well.

I always liked the old Scotty Bowman trick - He had a kid waiting in the hotel lobby with a hockey stick and as the players arrived after curfew, the kid asked the players to sign his hockey stick. What a surprise to see Scotty Bowman holding that same stick the following morning.

Sometimes that night wishing goes late.

Either that or he's tired of being shit on.
