WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING:

"After nine seasons of cups of coffee at the NHL level, Flaherty is still looking for a backup role in the big league. Last season, he thought he had finally reached his goal. However, he failed both with the New York Islanders and Tampa Bay Lightning to solidify the No. 2 job. At age 33, Flaherty may have wasted his best opportunity to earn an NHL salary for a full season." (The Sports Forecaster 2001-02, p. 224)
