I just need some scoring to make this playoff run happen. Now I need a backup goalie in case (God forbid) Brodeur gets hurt.

I picked up Foster in my 3rd season with the Caps. I grabbed him in the waiver draft. He was a 24 year old center who was never given a shot in the NHL, but had torn up the AHL the last two season (over 80 points). He can play in the show. He doesn't have the greatest skill set, but has a fantastic set of wheels. He ended up making the NHL Rookie All-Star team.
