I think Salo will be back in the game against Calgary, first game back home after todays game (Boston), and Minnesota. Conklin isn't young. I think he's 27 and has been playing in the Oilers system for a while. That's why Markkanen was shipped off to NYR, because they thoguht Conklin would have a shot on starter, rather than Markkanen(who is older than Conklin). Ty Conklin will probably play today in Boston, because some of his friends live here (he went to the University), and taht he can show what more he has in the bag. I think he plays with great confidence, and handles the puck a lot better than Salo. I think Conklin is capable of being main goalie, but I say wait until end of this year before trading Salo.
