I love the fact that we dont have a goalie signed beyond this year. If Gilles does awesome in the AHL next year and he seems close to ready, then we can extend johnson or elliot a few more years to have a veteran during the transition. If it seems like Gilles isnt ready, we can still extend Elliot or trade for one of the big name goalies (Bishop, Fleury, etc.) that teams need to get rid of prior to the expansion draft. We are in a really good position imo.
