SoxFan562004 Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Habby to the Edmonton Oilers, hopefully Huet is up for it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxbrian Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 The Khabibulin deal is likely front-loaded so it's not a bad deal. I'm not comfortable going into a season with Huet as the starter. Gross. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MurcieOne Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 For all of the good things Dale has done... Huet is the albatross around this team's neck that will keep us from winning it all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve9347 Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Huet, like most goaltenders, was the s*** last year when given consistent playing time. He didn't sign here to split time and he certainly didn't sign to be a backup. I expect him to be quite good in the coming season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our defense is good and continues to make strides, but we need another stride next year. Also, these Wings fans need to stop saying Hossa isn't clutch. He was 2nd in the 2008 playoffs in points, 5th last year among Red Wings in points in the playoffs, and 4th among Red Wings in goals in the playoffs.

Yes, after being a huge disappointment for THREE years, he waited until we were backed into the corner and signed another goaltender before looking like the Khabibulin of old. There were more bad times than good with Khabibulin, and his being gone isn't that huge a deal. Huet needs to step it up.

Khabby had a good season last year, but overall he did not do the job that he was brought here to do. He wasn't a workhorse and he didn't play consistently well (albeit on bad teams) for the better part of his 4 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huet has the skills, and I think he can really flourish if given regular playing time. That save he made against Franzen in the Detroit series was just silly.

clyons Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Huet will be fine. If it took four years to get Khabby, he can go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxFan1 Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Tallon talking about Hossa/Kopecky on CSN right now. Seems like Havlat is a goner. Says that the Hossa deal will effect re-signing Toews, Kane, and Keith. Basically said that they couldn't re-sign Havlat due to length of the deal and not due to money.

EvilJester99 Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Well they were reporting Huet was close to be dealt....maybe they are still trying to deal him. I can't see them relying on our rookies though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
