Kolzig walks

Although he is 38 years old, this was still a bit of a surprise. Will he play again? There ya go Ottawa.

Re: Kolzig walks

Yeah, it is a bit of a surprise. I have to assume he will be back, ala Hasek, but at the same time, that is pretty old for a netminder.

Re: Kolzig walks

I totally meant to post this and forgot over the weekend - of course he is unhappy - they put Huet in during the post. He is ☻☻☻☻ed. I expected this kind of reaction from him - and there will be a team to pick him up - how about tampa bay? they are hurting for a netminder.
He wants to be supremo number one, wherever he goes.

Ottawa can take him, LA might, Atlanta might, Florida, and the Preds. Kolzig isn't a bad goalie at all so they could all get something good.

Re: Kolzig walks

Florida has Vokoun - Kolzig isn't going there. Atlanta is a possibility, Ottawa I say no because they'll stick with Gerber and lose Emery - unless they plan on backing Gerber up to number two post or deal him away.
Maybe LA but they like Cloutier in the end, and Atlanta has bigger problems than netminders.

Tampa has new ownership and I am not so sure they will go in that direction...I think they are going to rebuild and go young, but I could be wrong.

Re: Kolzig walks

I think his attitude has to change though for any team to want him. I mean he's almost 40 and he was having a rough year. Can you blame Washington's management for grabbing Huet. Maybe he still thinks he has it in him and I guess we'll see. I simply think he should've been more understanding with the team's decision. On the other hand, he's been in the Caps organization since 1989 or half of his life so it must be pretty tough to see your management switch allegiances in such a hurry but the NHL is big business and winning is the be all end all. Do you stay loyal to your goaltender or do you take risks and try to win?

They like Theodore a lot, and you see him every week on the save if the week.
