I voted yes, because I'd love the chance to watch him some more. However, I immediately changed my mind. If MacDonald wasn't signed, then yes, I would want Kiprusoff around to support whoever wins the job. With MacDonald we don't need to have Kiprusoff playing since we are entering a new era. You keep a franchise goalie around when you are trying to be a strong playoff contender (assuming said goalie is still capable of doing the job). You don't keep a franchise goalie around if you need to get young guys more experience.
