[Hedberg]

Price is the best of the list, but I would say none of the above.

 

[jacketracket*]

Niittymaki?

 

[Jovavic]

Seems like Miller has been "up and coming" for three years now...

 

[CoolburnIsGone]

Cam Ward is missing from that list as well. And if I had to pick from that list, it would be Toivonen.

 

[FLYLine27*]

Lundqvist is missing, id replace Montoya with him, Montoya will be in the AHL next season. Well see how he does there with some defense in front of him...


I'd pick Toivonen from that list though.

 

[FLYLine27*]

Niittymaki?

Hes like 25, hes not considered a prospect anymore.

 

[Wally112pac]

Toivonens only greater is Lehtonen.

 

[mattihp]

Lundqvist, maybe he will do where Tellqvist failed... Show that play in the swedish league can translate to the NHL. I think he will, too much talent to not do well...

 

[Vic Rattlehead*]

Toivonen (although I am biased), but his play in the AHL last season was exceptional, especially considering he was playing behing an awful defence.

 

[MisterUnspoken]

Henrik Lundquvist
Cam Ward
Marek Schwarz

And props to the Oilers for

Desauliers (sp?)... I think he'll be a good one

 

[Traitor8]

it's cArey Price btw..just to tell u.

 

[TehDoak]

Miller should start for Buffalo this year...

 

[habs_24x]

Toivonen (although I am biased), but his play in the AHL last season was exceptional, especially considering he was playing behing an awful defence.

what do you suggest doing with Raycroft? hes young, extremely solid and has more experience than Toivonen... kind of looks like Theo and Garon, we had to chose one of them because the other was clearly a #1 also... i just hope we did the right choice

 

[KH1]

How about Schnieder?

 

[wedge]

I say Lundqvist and Toivonen

 

[clay]

corey schneider, julien ellis-plante, alexandre vincent

Montoya, Dubnyk, and Schwarz will be lucky if they ever see the light of day in the NHL because they are all known to be mentally poor goalies.

Miller should be the Sabres starter this year, and Toivonen should be ready to push Andrew Raycroft pretty soon.

Price is still very, very young, but easily has the best upside out of all thease goalies.

 

[Wally112pac]

Price is still very, very young, but easily has the best upside out of all thease goalies.

Are you serious?

 

[Hatter]

Garon or Nittymaki

 

[thestonedkoala]

Josh Harding!

Hannu Toivonen looks awesome...Bruins are lucky. What a stacked goaltending depth.

Homer

I haven't heard poor mentality out of Montoya, IIRC He kinda sorta won a WJC with the US. You gotta have something good going on in your head to beat a stacked Canadian team

 

[Large_Farva*]

How about Schnieder?

Well, he's not even the full-time starter on Boston College.

 

[Large_Farva*]

Homer

Yeah, just a homer pulling crap out of his anus, don't worry.

 

[Malakhov]

Someone from BC says it, no one bothers him, then later in the thread a Habs fan says it and he's an homer
