Kabbooooooooooooom!!! Flyers Acquire Vokoun
GM Noops has finally done it. He has acquired a true number one goaltender. The asking price was high, but GM Noops number one goal this off-season was to bring in some players than can steal a game or two or many for the team. A few weeks ago, Teemu Selanne was brought in and now Tomas Vokoun.
Noops: “Under my control, the flyers have never had a shutout. Not one friggin shutout in a season and a half!!! That should change now”
In exchange for Vokoun, Montreal receives Andrew Raycroft, and two young guys destined for stardom in Jason Pominville and Kyle Okposo.
“we’re giving up two good young players, but we feel that we have the depth to be able to make this move. Pominville would have been a 3rd liner for us, and Okposo is at least one year away from making the big club.”
