I am happy with this trade. I feel better taking a goalie with heart (his getting upset at the Coyotes's piss poor play in front of him is what I mean by "heart") that played well in front of a pretty terrible team. I like that he moves the puck well. I think a change of pace to a hockey loving city will also be a big factor for him. Maybe a bit jittery at first with the change but I'm excited to see his body of work after 20 starts.
