Great for him. Isn't it a bit unfair to him that after a strong season he probably won't get to play in the playoffs? Somehow it ain't right.

I'm not so sure. I think making MAF eligible was more of an insurance policy as a backup to, and not a replacement for him.

Based on Therrien's comments in today's Post-Gazette it sound like MAF will be the starter in the playoffs.

I understand the decision from the organization's standpoint, of course. You want to go with the best players available and Fleury is definitely the better goalie. Still, touhg for Dany.

I guess that was rather rude of me to state hat I'd found it and then not post it for others to enjoy.

Apologies.
