Good signing for the isles. I don't think he was the type of goaltender calgary needed. Flames need either a 1b goalie or a veteran goalie to teach.

Halak-Johnson is a humongous big upgrade to Nabokov-Poulin-Nilsson.

Dang, I didn't know Chad "Ochocinco" Johnson plays hockey too.

He Johnson is actually a decent backup so not bad signing. Notice the bad teams like Oilers and now Islanders are trying to get busy early in FA frenzy?

I wouldn't mind Nabokov in Calgary for cheap. Give him a couple years until Ortio is ready for fulltime work (or a 1B spot).

I'd rather have Greiss, Peters or Montoya.

His stats were inflated with the Bruins team play. Glad we didn't pick him up quite frankly.
