Default Which goalies to draft? Help!!!

I'm in the middle of my draft in a pretty good sized money league, we only have to start one goalie weekly and it basically wins only with a bonus for shutouts, because of certain value picks and all the top goalies going right away I've waited to take mine. On the next turn (I have the 3rd pick) I plan on taking 2 goalies hoping at least one works out and wanted to get some opinions from people that probably know more about goalies than I do.

Here's who's left, which 2 do I take?

Luongo
Hiller
Lehtonen
Crawford
Holtby
Backstrom
Lindback
Kiprusoff
Halak
Pavelec
Brodeur
Dubnyk
Nabokov

Thanks

Lots of value in owning a bonafide #1. I'd be after Lehtonen or Kiprusoff.

I like Kipper and Luongo the best.

Top 5 rankings:
1. Kipper
2. Luongo
3. Lehtonen
4. Hiller
5. Pavelec

Halak misses the cut due to short season, and having capable backup Brian Elliott. In short Halak won't see enough games this season to put on the wins.

Halak, Lehtonen, or Kiprusoff - won't hurt you.
then
Luongo or Lindback - for a second goalie who have upside esp if Lou gets traded

Thanks everyone

After your imput I think I'll go Kipper and Luongo if they both make it to me, gives me one guy who garunteed to start a lot of games in Kipper and one with a lot of upside depending on where he ends up this season.

for W's and SO I'd rather wait another few rounds and gamble on Backstrom and Dubnyk.

I would but I think after I pick teams will start taking backups and being that most of the guys in the league are from MN Backstrom is sure to go but I'm thinking I may roster 3 goalies so we'll see who's left when it comes back around to me.
