  "account": "Kevin Cheveldayoff, the Jets' general manager, couldn't resist a humorous remark during a press conference regarding the roster of goaltenders in training camp. He jokingly noted that he couldn't have five goalies on the roster, sparking speculation about the team's plans for the season.\n\nAmong the 31 players placed on waivers, four were goalies. The Canadiens may buy time by sending Jakub Dobes to Laval, while Samuel Montembeault could serve as a reclamation project or viable backup option for the team. Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen and Alex Lyon are also on the radar for the Sabres, who may carry three goalies initially but face challenges with the salary cap.\n\nThe Hurricanes have depth with Brandon Bussi, Pyotr Kochetkov, Cayden Primeau, Ruslan Khazheyev, and Zach Sawchenko, but their urgency to sign Dan Hellebuyck remains unclear. John Gibson, Daniil Tarasov, Michal Postava, and Trey Augustine are key figures for the Jets, with Postava potentially available via trade and Augustine emerging as a future No. 1.",
