Rampage sign Fallon

According to the social network pages of the San Antonio Rampage, the team has signed goalie Joe Fallon to an AHL deal.

 Fallon split time between Peoria and Rockford last season. Here is his scouting report, from www.hockeysfuture.com:

Fallon is a big goaltender at 6’3 who covers a lot of net. He is a stand-up type with extremely good lateral movement. Fallon displays great confidence, focus and is very consistent. He has the ability to make the second and third saves and does a very good job of controlling his rebounds. He follows plays well and stays square to the shooters. He is also willing to challenge shooters. Fallon is a very good on his angles and does a great job of covering the lower part of the net. His puckhandling ability, which isn’t one of his strongest attributes, is an area that Fallon can improve in.

I won't even begin to speculate what this means for the Rampage. But they now have 3 goalies that can play at this level. And play at an above average level.
