Gigantor The Goalie
Speak for the Goalies
Any young goalie making the transition to the AHL will be rough. Look at the top 5 goalies in raw GSAA in the AHL right now: Michalek, Rittich, Hill, Lindgren and Ellis. Only one goalie is under the age of 23yo and that is Hill. The bottom 5 rookie AHL goalies in raw GSAA: Alex Nedeljkovic, Brandon Halverson, Mackenzie Blackwood, Jason Kasdorf and Thatcher Demko. Two NCAA goalies and three CHL goalies. Four of those goalies though are 20/21yo. Takes a special goalie to make that jump early into the AHL such as Juuse Saros.
