You still haven't explained who these NHL-calibre goalies are that are just kicking around the ECHL waiting to be signed.
You can find them all over the European leagues, AHL, and ECHL. They’re waiting for a chance at league minimum NHL salary. Do you think it’s just an accident that there isn’t a single one projected to go in the top 2 rounds of the draft?
