I think David Aebischer is the only decent veteran goaltender still out there. I don't see Bernier playing anywhere other then Manchester next year. Do I really have to watch LaBarbera play again? I hope Ersberg takes over.
LaBarbara was fine... look at his save percentage. The main issue with him is... IF YOU'RE HURT... SAY YOU'RE HURT. He was good when he was healthy and god awful when he tried to play through his injuries.
The main issue with just about every goaltender this franchise has ever had has been the defense in front of them.
