I voted 4 Greiss mainly cause he's the only one I know and he's on my favorite team: Sharks. biggrin

I think he's a solid backup, his Olympics were horrid but he's done well for the Sharks in the season so far.

I think backups are extremely important and every team who wants 2 succeed come late April and on need a good one.

I would say Jimmy Howard... except now he's the primary, #1 goalie for DET. biggrin i love ozzie, but... *whistles* not a good season for him.

I have noticed that Rask and Howard have kinda become the main goalies for their teams and I wonder why. I mean, I thought Thomas and Osgood were really good goalies...what happened?  
PostPosted: Fri Apr 02, 2010 10:52 pm
Idk, but neither have been playing as great lately. Thomas and Rask split time, while Osgood is never seen anymore.

Definitely Raycroft. I like him more than Luongo, actually.

I don't think theres much of a question here. Rask has been unbelievable. To take the top spot from the Vezina trophy winner is a task in and around itself difficult..but then to statistically be one the best goalies in the league, if not the best, thats just sexy cool

Tuukka Rask no doubt, without him the bruins wouldn't have went anywhere this year

Tuuuk!!!
Yeah. I really hope they don't trade Tim Thomas though...
Rask probaly can't handle more than 55 games.
