At what point do we start looking unfavourably at the Matt Murray deal again?

Second trip to LTIR on the season.  When healthy he's been pretty solid and he has played in 19 games so it isn't like he hasn't been a contributor.  Samsonov has been the better of the two goalies on the whole anyway so if it ends up in a 50/30 split of games that doesn't seem that far out of reasonable but we do have Murray locked in for next season and he's not exactly a cheap backup if we have to pay Samsonov a lot more next year.

But on that same tip, if Murray does keep up his fairly solid play if you need to move him to accommodate a cheaper back-up it shouldn't be that hard.

Sure, and I'm not trying to say we should be concerned at this point but if Murray doesn't have a good second half when he comes back from injury he might not be easy to move

I'm looking forward to seeing Gavrikov.

First game back from the break...trap.

I think they need to treat this as a test drive of Gavrikov.

Maybe invite him over to our locker room during the first intermission for hors d'oeuvres and some mulled cider.

I believe if you keep the menu simple enough, it's not tampering.  But I defer to you, Frank ? this is your wheelhouse.

Another chance to see why we should have taken Laine ahead of Matthews.

I'm flying to Germany tomorrow night, and I will be in France on Wednesday, so I will feel your pain Arn.
