Anyone have any recommendations on a Solid goalie for a decent price (preferably 86 Overall +)?

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Speaking of recommendations, I just did my first collection swap with mhart1 on here or mhart123 on PS3. I got the Avalanche Collection from him, the reward. M's Highly recommended. Smooth, easy and simple.

Also recommended even though most of you know is: RangerGuru (lundqvist30nyr, PS3) FlyingRed752 (FlyingRed527, PS3) and I Trust Gary Bettman (michiga1985, PS3) . ;)

Rinne is the only goalie I've used that doesn't give up crappy goals. I don't have the urge to "upgrade" to anyone else, since better goalies (Price, Quick and Lundqvist) are considerably shorter...

Yeah. I wouldn't want to go higher then $30k. Was looking at either Lehtonen, Crawford or Niemi SOTW. Might try Lehtonen out, as I see one for $13,950 BIN. But will re-sell ASAP if he ***** the bed.

Yeah, goalies are pretty frustrating. Stats don't tell half the story, and the only way to see if they're actually decent is if you try them.

I myself have had really bad luck with Howard and Smith. Before Rinne I used an 86 Schneider, and he was very solid too.

Yeah. To be frank, my best Goalie has actually been my 38 overall Ice Tilt Shielding backup, Truatmann. :laugh:

And that's saying alot, considering Traut's has let in 6+ goals a game.

Smith seams good. I always get shutout by him.

Is Anderson good?

Not at all. He has been absolutely brutal for me.

Any recommendations for around the price range of $30-50k?

To be honest Landeskog.

He's a PWF and was better than pacioretty for me. In that range you listed is like Neal, Kane, Sharp but I don't think it's worth it for those guys.

Skinner and especially LW Voracek I'd take over any of those guys above.

Collection (86+ ):
Reds: S. Stamkos, C. Perry, R. Getzlaf, P. Bergeron, B. Marchand, D. Keith, B. Seabrook, J. Toews, M. Duchene, J. Johnson, J. Benn, T. Hall, D. Doughty, P. Subban, S. Weber, J. Tavares, R. Nash, C. Giroux, V. Lecavalier, K. Letang, B. Burns, J. Thornton, J. Bouwmeester
Oranges: E. Staal, P. Sharp, R. McDonagh, J. Pavelski, V. Hedman, M. * Louis, J. Lupul
Greens: H. Sedin, B. Ryan, J. Lupul, V. Fasth, J. Hiller, T. Zajac, P. Statsny, J. Franzen, J. Georges, D. Girardi, Z. Bogosian

Any are for trade. Reds are roster players or locks, so they'll be aboot impossible. Greens have no immediate use to me, so they should be pretty do-able.

Neal interests me. I tried Skinner, he only got 3rd/4th line minutes for me. Voracek is intriguing aswell, but I don't know If I'm looking for another Sniper, already have three.

Pavelec has been best goalie for me overall @ 32-14 890 save % doesn't let that many weak goals when boosted at least.

Also Neal is garbage much better options out there,.

Voracek can hit people. He's 85chk I think. Only reason he's considered a sniper in the game is his 88sht. He's big too.

Landeskog and Horton have been the most effective PWF's for me.

Ah, yeah. I hate that Ryan is a Sniper and not a Power-Forward, wrecks Chemistry.

How so? It's the same concept. PLY - TWF - SNP or PWF. That's the only way to get chem with either of them, I believe :P Actually, I think you can put snipers with grinders and playmakers too. So easier.

Depends on what's on the table. I know JCF wants him too.
