I'm not sure that it would, which is why I was curious to see if it had any legs. Responses such as yours would be interesting to read as the debate of why they would make that move, what happens to the succession plan and who (if anyone) would have to be moved out would keep us busy for weeks.

My personal feeling? Management doesn't trust what we have to get through an extended period if Smith goes down, but also doesn't value the backup role enough to pay for a bonafide 1B which means we see shuffling of deck chairs with a young inexperienced goalie being replaced with an equally young equally inexperienced goalie * or * an Eddie Lack situation like last year.

Also, just out of curiosity, was Forsberg the goalie of record when the Monsters won the AHL Calder Cup?
