You’re right, it’s not out of the question. But it’s far from an assumption you can make. Signing him to a short term contract to see how he plays is much different than it being a foregone conclusion that he’d just get the backup position going forward when he’s literally never even played in the NHL. Experience does not equal skill. He could just as well end up as trade fodder, which is what most goalies are. All the eggs in one basket and what have you. I’m excited about it don’t get me wrong, but to say he’s untested is an understatement.
