Where is cristobal huet now

Another former team, the Los Angeles Kings, may also need help should they honor the reported trade request of current Cup-winning backup Jonathan Bernier. Despite their inclusion atop the Luongo trade rumors, the Florida Panthers still have Theodore, who also could fill the Vancouver vacancy in a deal, and Scott Clemmensen holding the fort for promising youngster Jacob Markstrom.

Boston is well equipped to handle the Tim Thomas sabbatical with Tuukka Rask as the starter, but is thin on experience beyond that, with Anton Khudobin set to start the season as the No.

The Carolina Hurricanes, for all their other signings, are set to go into the season with Cam Ward and Justin Peters while Brian Boucher recovers from summer shoulder surgery that will keep him out until at least November and possibly to the end of December. Philadelphia has Michael Leighton penciled in to back up Ilya Bryzgalov. Of course, a lot can change between now and that start, including injuries and ineffective preseason performances. Huet seems willing to wait it out. We encourage you to review it carefully.

Enter Huet. Huet is stopping. If you swap Leclaire, already a backup, for Huet, the difference in net could be marginal. But the difference long-term could be enormous. The Hawks might have to send some cash to Ottawa if this was a deal the teams actually considered because the Sens are just as close to the current cap as the Blackhawks are, but the benefit would be after the season for Chicago if a deal like this went down.

Never cared much for him. Huet is a solid back up goalie. Everyone says he sucks because of the money he was paid in Chicago. He got elite money when he is not that.

He would be a solid back up for a team needing another year or 2 before their young guy is ready. Why would he want to get mixed up with all the NHL pressure again? I could understand it if he was 27 maybe, but not now. Extremely overrated, not technically sound. Remember Felix Potvin?
