They're just back-ups. Probably the least important position in this draft. How big of a difference are they going to make on your team anyways? I don't think they have much of an impact.
Ask the Leafs how much impact a backup can have

True, but injuries aren't factored into this thing (I think) which is the only reason Minnesota's back-ups had a bigger impact on the team.
When my team is being judged, and my goalies are being judged, I expect the judges to determine how solid my goaltending would be by using Lundqvist as the determining factor - because it's Lundqvist who will be in net for my team if we were in the playoffs, if we were in a game 7, if we were squared up against the best team in the league, etc. and not whoever I choose as my back-up.
I don't think they will (or ever had) have much impact on your team in this game.
