So we traded a few spots for him. Not sure if this is a position of need. Have some young keepers on the team already, so they must like him a lot.

Just saw the HBD Instagram for Luis....loved that during the post-match against Philly, Luis was the one whispering updates on Taty and the Playoffs into Sean Johnson's ear. We've got a legit #2 with the passion to challenge for the #1 slot next year!

Our Johnson turns 33 early next season. He had some rough spots this year, but has been solid lately, and I love the guy. Barraza seems to be the heir apparent. Not next season, but eventually.
