The Bruins have their new backup goaltender

And it's not Dobby, but it is a seasoned vetetan

NHL: New York Islanders at Boston Bruins Bob DeChiara-USA TODAY Sports

A bit hat tip to Andy for breaking the news. In his career, Halak is 232-150-48, with a 2.50 GAA and a .916 SV%. The 33-year-old has had stints in Montreal, St. Louis, Washington and Long Island before his time with the Bruins. What do you think of your new backup goaltender, Bruins fans? Can he eat the 20-25 games necessary for Tuukka Rask to thrive?

EDIT:

And do we have a price, $500K more than Dobby. Too much? Appropriate?
