Former Montreal Canadiens backup Dustin Tokarski is on his sixth team in six seasons, after signing a two-year deal with the Buffalo Sabres on Wednesday.
For the Montreal Canadiens, backup goaltending is something the team has been lacking in, especially in recent years.
Long removed from the days of Peter Budaj’s reliability, with the former Colorado Avalanche and LA Kings starter posting an 8-1-1 record with a 2.29 GAA in 2012-13, the team has seen numerous different options come and go, with varying levels of success.
