the summer signings thread

Bruins could always call this guy...

I'm not sure that he's the cell phone type, Dash. I love the story about the scars on the mask though.

Every time the mask saved him from real stitches, he put marker stitches on it.

I just saw that. Oddly enough, I find that much riskier than Crosby's extension. Hope it works out though.

might not be riskier than crosby's, but i do think its risky.. goalies are so up and down these days.. aside from lundqvist there really hasn't been a goalie that's been top notch for more than 2 or 3 years in a row in a long time.. even brodeur is kinda up and down nowadays
