While I agree its not a bold move, it is actually a low risk high reward signing. The likely hood of it paying off, agreed is low, but the fact of the matter is the best case scenario in his signing is the Oilers get an elite level NHL goalie for the remainder of this season. Bryz has proven he can be elite in this league, he hasn't proven he can do it consistently and not be a disaster at some points either. But there is tones of POTENTIAL upside here.
