You have every reason to worry. I don't think Huet is "the" goalie, and they couldn't reasonably resign Khabibulin unless they moved Huet's contract before July 1sy (Free Agency)...and with the ridiculous contract Tallon signed Huet to, that ain't gonna happen.

So....we can go with Huet and one of the Rockford boys (Crawford, Nietti) next seaon. Or trade Huet and go completely "youthful" with Crawford AND Nietti.....or we can try to acquire another goalie in free agency and hope we can move Huet.

Anyway you look at it, it doesn't look great.
