Tre Mac Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 Didn't even think he was still in the NHL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeremyCuddles Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 Really liked him, but our goalies have been really sound this year. Maybe if Nilsson had a long term injury I'd say try him out. He had a decent amount of success here with our trash can teams, especially considering he finished two seasons playing 20+ consecutive games. He's not a terrible goalie.

250Integra Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 I'm sure we'll never forget how Tortorella started him over Luongo during the outdoor classic. That was the final blow... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Provost Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 If this had have happened right when Nillson got hurt, maybe for a short term fix and then waive again once everyone was healthy. Now with both our injured goalies close it doesn’t make sense at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’d have to keep him up or waive him (as NJ is doing) to get him to Utica. NJ would have first dibs and would just claim him back for their own farm team.

HI5 Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 Flames can use an upgrade on Mike Smith and we all know Eddie has an excellent relationship with Bill Peters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JM_ Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 Eddie is one of those guys you can easily be happy for, he's set up financially for life and had his run in the NHL. If this is it for him he's done well for himself. Maybe open a taco stand in Sweden now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaku Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 He's had more than his fair share of chances to make a splash in the NHL and hasn't. Tough to see but, probably a fairly easy decision for NJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this is it for him he's done well for himself. Maybe open a taco stand in Sweden now. This. Or, actually, I'd really like to see him become a hockey TV personality. Put him on Sportsnet and let his personality run the show. NBA-centric TV has done this with some of the bigger basketball personalities (Charles Barkley, Shaq, Jalen Rose) to great success. NHL needs to follow suit. Once Eddie's playing career is done let him run wild on TV and do all the Taco segments he wants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthMelvin Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 Good back up but Starter wise he was under way to much pressure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruilin96 Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 We got the draft pick that eventually become Guillaume Brisebois in return. Good trade for JB. JB has been able to prove over time that most of his moves are actually good moves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
