Don't get me wrong Jim - I don't think you are far off in this - I just think in a roto with max games and 50% of your goalie cats are volume that having guys like Ward and Kipper put up 40 games each for you is going to be good for your squad. Yeah I think GA, GAA and SV% won't be stellar but they won't be bottom of the pack.

Kipper put up a .921 and 2.35 on a pretty bad team last season. The number of SA these guys will take will certainly ameliorate some of the softness in peripherals.

I don't think you guys are on opposite sides of the fence here. My goalies are mediocre and the peripheral stats are going to hurt me, but I think (read: hope) they'll do fine.

The other thing is goalies are a premium to the GMs in my league, so it'll be harder to acquire a stud G than tinker with my skaters.

I've made some minor changes in that I removed Voracek, Dubinsky, and Visnovsky and replaced them with Schenn (still got my eye on Voracek), Boyle, and Goligoski.

Any thoughts?

Thanks.
