Better than Michael Hutchinson. It's not like they had many other options.

better than nothing. didn't like the idea of an "automatic out" by playing TT on the same workload and just plugging one of the other guys in the rest of the way regardless of result.

Solid pickup. Should be fine here. He doesn't need to clear as he hasn't played in any other league, correct?

Not a terrible pickup. Thomas needs to rest, especially with playoff time coming.

Better than any of the other available options (like Hutchison). He might player 3 or 4 games down the stretch if he does clear. Lets just hope he comes in fresh and ready to play.

He's played 1 game for Salzburg, Austia, giving up 3 goals and posting a 0.870 save%
EDIT: never trust wikipedia alone. just checked the homepage of the austrian hockey leage. he's played 10 games, .919 s% and 3,04 GAA

Not like there are many alternatives. If they play real strong D they will be okay.

Finally, the PMD we've always needed.
Heard he can't play in the playoffs since he came here after the trade deadline.

When do they call up the "Aces"? Hopefully Anton is healthy by then and can get a game or 2 in.
