This is typical BS I've come to expect. McD is just looking to sign the big names.

I assume they gave him a physical, and knew of this before signing him?

I would assume the same. Personally I think McD is out to sign the big names, but doesn't have much hockey sense. I mean yes, we do have him locked up long term, but with some big contracts coming to an end soon we need to strike now. Having him out until December, with Havlat gone will hurt the team. And who knows how Huet will perform this season as the clear #1.

I may be a pessimistic fan, but it seems like the team is on the brink of falling apart if we dont make some smarter moves in the future. I've seen the Hawks when they were terrible and I don't want to go back.
