If we are going to sign a backup, I would have liked somebody who has a chance at 1A that you can trust for a whole playoff series. We know what Pickard is and the ceiling isn’t high.
2 years indicates to me that they don’t really plan on letting Rodrigue try NHL games unless things go south.

At $1M per year he can go to the minors with no penalty, so I don't this this means that there is no chance on another goalie getting a call up. I know it's a one way contract so there is a risk of losing him, but if his play goes south and you send him down, then losing him wouldn't be the end of the world. Doesn't seem like a risky signing at all to me.
