This is a move to try and get in this season IMO. Trouble is, no new coach will help the atrocious goaltending they have received all year. I can see Yzerman going after a G in the next couple days to shore that up and see if they can go on a run.
Yzerman really put a lot of stock in Lindback so I can't see him straying far from Lindback as his long term goalie. But, it's clear Lindback isn't ready for the full time gig. Miller, Luongo, Bernier and the other rumored available goalies fly in the face of Lindback being given the job long term. Kipper, on the other hand, fits the time table and could ease Lindbacks transition.
