Good goalies have to start somewhere, may as well give them a few starts each and see where you are after that.
55 games plus 100% of two seasons as a backup, with NHL practices and ready to go in all 82 games.

Plus it's not like he'd be playing behind Edm's or Van's D. Last I checked, TBL still has a pretty good D corps.

Lightning need someone cheap. Athletic speculates they may look at Halak or Elliot, who are free agents still, or wait to see what else pops up on the waiver wire.


Surely someone better than Martin will come along.

The man travels and travels well. If you cruise is twitter feed last month August 28th he was at Crane Beach in Barbados. Exactly a month later he's in Old Alberta. Just beauty after beauty.

Suggesting the Lightning are interested in Martin is about as ludicrous as suggesting they might want Vladar.

Vvladar would be the optimal choice for Tampa, they would love the stability for next year, too. But that trade would have to be money in, money out.

How would claiming one of their goalies off waivers help them? I guess it frees up a contract slot?

It doesn't help us? He's already in the AHL. And yes, going with guys they have is also more likely than making a trade.
