from Lance Hornby of the Toronto Sun,
Cliff Fletcher is now in the market for a backup goalie who won’t break the bank....
Wade Dubielewicz just left the New York Islanders, but is headed for Russia. Another journeyman, 6-foot-6 Etobicoke native Steve Valiquette, is expected to depart the Rangers after his most active year in the NHL (13 games behind Henrik Lundqvist), but could be joining the Vancouver Canucks. Curtis Joseph’s name has been mentioned, but agent Don Meehan so far is playing down the chances of him coming back.
After a long talk with Andrew Raycroft’s agent Jordan Neumann, Fletcher is deferring his call on the ex-backup’s fate until Monday. He’s considering putting Raycroft on waivers again to facilitate a buyout or gauge interest in him around the league.
