The Edmonton Oilers have a new No. 1 netminder, acquiring Dwayne Roloson from the Minnesota Wild in exchange for a first-round pick in this June's Entry Draft and a conditional draft pick.

The Oilers have bounced back and shown how they can play with adversity all season. They will make a series out of it for sure. Too bad that the Oilers lose a Conn Smythe candidate but lets remember that its a team game - one player will not make or break the playoffs.

Pack your bags for the hospital. Keep in mind, that Roloson still let in 4 goals on 23 shots. Don't no blame Conklin for that game.

Too bad about Roloson. Man, that's just got to be devastating to the Oilers - lose a game you should have won AND lose your goalie for the rest of the playoffs. Well, we'll find out how the Oilers deal with adversity that's for sure.

Looks like he is packing his bags early because of injury.

DARN - that is too bad for him, the Oilers, the fans, and hockey.

Kevin Lowe loks like a genius now! Great trades before the deadline and the Oilers are playing very well. Rollie is playing so well - I don't think anyone expected this play - looking like a Con Smyth winner!

Rollie has done that with the puck many times as a Wild player it sure gets the fans going.
good luck in the second round

In International play MANY years ago, Hasek (at least I think it was him) booted it with his pad like a soccer goalie kicks it with his foot.

It was a nice kick.

I've never seen a goalie do anything like Roloson did in Game 2 against Detroit when he caught the puck with less than 1 minute to go a whacked it like a baseball over the Detroit defenders! That was awesome! I'm sure the coach didn't think so though.

Um, SAIT CuJo will turn 39 in April.

Glad the Wild could trade him for a 1st rounder. Too bad he beat them last night though.

Hope Rollie will do you guys good he is a great man and I am sorry to see him go but wish him and his new team the best. But hope he has bad days when he plays the Wild.

lol... a 36 year old goalie? Come on... the Oilers need to spend and get a Cujo or a Luongo type goalie.

I figured they would get a goalie, but is Roloson the answer?
