    I'm thinking around 15-18 which is still a decent total for a backup.

    Sometime Fleury can be horrible for many games, If Vokoun does well in a situation like this, I wont be surprise to see him play more than half of the 48 games... This guy can be very good...

    Vokoun plays for a powerhouse team, with a shaken starter ( see last years playoffs) and as a back up should see quite a few games and most of them against weaker competetion.

    If you need a third goalie to fill the void, I would grab this guy, should have really good stats as a back up for Pit, perhaps even snag the starter role if every thing goes right or wrong however you want to look at it.

    Count on 16... But if MAF shits the bed and goes on a cold stretch, then it could be in the 20's.

    I'll take the 18 or fewer option, unless Fleury goes down due to injury.

    I've been wondering the same thing myself. I have Nuevirth as my third goalie and wondering if I should grab Vokoun or even Theodore instead.

    To those following this situation as closely as I am - apparently Bylsma speculated Vokoun would get ~20 starts, according to whoever was covering the broadcast of the Penguins' scrimmage.

    I heard the same thing and if it is true, Fleury's numbers will drop substantially.
    Points only, 26 team keeper league. keep 8 + 4 prospects. 2 LW,2 RW, 2C, 4 D and G. 1 point goal,1 point assist
    Goalies. 2 points win, 1 for O/T or Shoot out loss, 3 for SO, 2 for assist, 10 for goal. Minus 1 for a loss
    Draft 8 more through draft. Need to have 11 on main team, 9 on reserve. Once roster set, can add 1 injured reserve spot.

    Roster:
    LW JVR, Steen, Hagelin
    C Malkin, E. Staal, Nelson
    RW Okposo, Wheeler, Donskoi
    D Demers, Pulock, Savard, Vlasic
    G Holtby

    prospects: Frost, Sprong, Andersson, Bear, Niku, Katchouk

    The playoff race will change that. Fleury's projected 28 starts (based on Bylsma's quote) will quickly become 30-32 unless he is terrible and Vokoun steals the job.

    There is also a comment from Asst Coach Granato (on Yahoo Player updates) that said he thinks back-ups will need to play 16-22 games this year to keep goalies fresh.

    That doesn't bode well for Fleury's starts and should suggest several starts for Vokoun.

    I'd be pretty shocked if Vokoun gets anywhere near 19+ starts in a 48 game season.
