Raycroft and Boynton unsigned in Boston

Goalies that miss training camp can become a big disappointment.

I know. I am not happy about Raycroft not being in camp. I knew Boynton would be a problem, his agent's been making noise in the local papers for some time now, but I really thought they'd get Raycroft in there. You're absolutely right about goalies missing time in camp having bad seasons.

Bruins signed Tim Thomas today, from what I understand. The bad thing is Thomas isn't Raycroft, the good thing is he's not Byron Dafoe, who Boston was going to bring into camp. The brain trust may go with Toivonen-Thomas, in which case Toivonen might be a good sleeper pick.

Patrice Bergeron and Andy Hilbert both had solid seasons for Providence. Bergeron especially may be worth a look.

Good luck, I'm not doing the fantasy hockey...sounds like fun tho. Maybe next year.
