Why are we laughing? C. Johnson is a better option?

Yes and its not even close. Jonas is rarely gets over a .910 svpct.

Johnson is usually a .920 guy in a backup role.

I think he's a way better option, but there's still no need to be laughing at this. That's just mocking for the sake of mocking.

While on Boston:

Gustavson: 90.8%, 24 games
Johnson: 92.5%, 27 games

Last year:

Gustavson: 90.8%, 24 games
Johnson: 92.0%, 45 games

Career:
Gustavson: 90.2%, 172 games
Johnson: 91.7%, 101 games

Save percentage is one of the better stats in hockey, especially when comparing the same role on the same team. Johnson is definitely better. I hope just hope the "home" factor doesn't negatively affect him.

Gotta like how the Flames went for two high save percentage goalies.

Johnson was on better Boston teams then Gustavsson. Both are backups, both are manageable cap hits. Nothing to see here.

Seems like a fair deal. This must be one of the times when the Oilers broken clock is right.
