This article sums up my thoughts on the Sharks goaltending very well. As I said earlier, I think McLellan made a mistake starting Stalock in game 6.

But why would Sutter go with Jones? Quick is a Conn Smythe winner and elite goalie. No matter how bad Quick was playing he still gives them the best chance to win. He has an extra gear.
Niemi is not an elite goalie. He is average. He is has been chased 4 times by the Kings in the playoffs in his career. His team won a Cup in spite of his play. A switch was warranted.
Dumb article.
Argument for Nemo is that he can get on a hot streak, he is out of this world. I don't know if Alex has that upside. In order for San Jose to make a long Cup run, they need a stellar goalie, so I go with Nemo. Even if Stalock plays well enough to win game 7, it is uncertain if he can lead the way past the Ducks, Central champ, etc.
I dont think Nemo has ever played out of this world in his career.
