I agree with the other posters that it doesn't matter who the backup is but is it for the last 6 games or just day to day until nabby is back?Have they actually announced that Nabby is done for the season? Last i saw was day to day.
doubtful they risk playing nabby. if i were the isles, id play grahame every game the rest of the way with the instructions to get out of the way of the puck.....

you know Grahame is going to come in for relief and not let up a goal for the remaining games, then he will get signed to a 3 yr deal at 3 mil per, just to keep it fun

id be so pissed if we dont trade grahame for at least a first and a prospect! typical islanders to let him skip aways for free!! im so dissapointed about this
Is there any chance that he gets a start? I would have thought NO for sure, but Montoya is not tearing it up, the team would be better off losing (the players won't tank, but starting a sub-par goalie would do the trick), and it might be a nice reward for a goalie that has not played in the NHL in a couple of years (not saying he deserves it, but Snow could have suggested it as a possibility when he signed). Still, I'd have to think the best he'll get is work if Montoya is relieved over the last few games.
Unless this is an elaborate April fools joke... looks like he is. Which I guess is fine... now that we are officially out might as well try to get a higher draft pick.

okay wait. we're starting a guy who has spent the better part of the last few years not playing, but coaching? Seriously garth, why didnt you just sign yourself....this should be fun...

Lets not exaggerate, he spent this season coaching, before that he was playing for the last few seasons. It was AHL hockey, but he was playing nonetheless.
