Roloson Knows He Is In A Backup Role

from Mark Spector of Sportsnet,

So Roloson knows what he is these days. He’ll even admit it: “Insurance.”

He’s not complaining, or trying to make waves. He’s just a guy who has been around hockey long enough that he doesn’t need a gypsy to read the cards being dealt at Oilers camp this fall.

His mandate?

“Don’t let them put you in a spot to be the backup,” Roloson said on Wednesday. “Do whatever you can do to prove that you can play, that you want to play. That’s all I can do: take advantage of the playing time that they’re giving me, and do the best that I can.”
