The Buffalo Sabres have signed another NHL goalie, bringing in former Avalanche goalie Alex Georgiev on a one year deal. Georgiev has led the NHL in wins twice in the last three years, but is coming off a terrible season. With the signing, there is also news of a Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen injury before training camp begins. What does the Georgiev signing likely mean for how bad UPL's injury is. Sneaky Joe and Locked On Avalanche host Zach Pearson go through Georgiev's recent career and a comparison of his numbers to UPLs.

Could the plan for Georgiev be the AHL? Joe explains why he believes that is not the case.

Plus, Radim Mrtka stands out for the Buffalo Sabres in their first game of the Prospects Challenge, which ended in defeat to the New Jersey Devils.
