The Philadelphia Flyers goaltending hasn’t been a bright spot for the team this season with top two net minders Steve Mason and Michal Neuvirth combining for an .896 save percentage, but their future at the position is bright. With many players waiting in the wings, it’s tough to say who will be the first to make the jump. What is known, however, is that the Flyers goaltending could look a lot different in the next few years.

Aside from Mason and Neuvirth, the Flyers have many goaltending prospects in their system. They spread across the AHL, junior leagues and even in the SHL. And most of them have shown the talent that the Flyers are looking for at the goaltending position.

Well done.

I'll admit that I'm not sure that any of these guys feel like they are can't miss, but there are so many quality prospects it does feel like one must pan out

Goalies can't be trusted so it's wise to collect a whole bunch of them.

It's just important to know how to judge talent to keep the right one.
And not run a Vezina nominee out of town if he has a somewhat difficult personality.

We have seen it all...

Is this guy you speak of; winning Vezina #2 this year? He is having an OK season just leads the league in GAA, Wins, and save %...that's it. But hey, we got Mason.
