    Default Keeper - Hellberg or Kuemper?

    Little trouble deciding who I like more short and longterm. Would love some of you lovely dobberites to weigh in and share your opinion!

    Kuemper both short and long-term. Too many unknowns with Hellberg while Kuemper is on the verge of being an NHL goalie, and with goalie prospects that's like 90% of the equation.

    Kuemper for me as well. Better opportunity in Minnesota and as the previous poster pointed out, he's much closer to impacting in the NHL.

    Another vote for Kuemper.
    With Hackett gone, and Harding having health issues, Kuemper could see some NHL action this year. He had great numbers in his 21 AHL starts last year and didn't look out of place in his limited NHL action either.

    I think Keumper is in a great spot with Backstrom and Harding ahead of him. He will see games this year with that situation due to injury alone. Hellberg has Pekka Rinne and that situation alone knocks him down a few pegs in the ladder. I love Keumper's situation.

    I'm a huge fan of Hellberg as I see a bright future for him. He has the skills, size and coaching to make it in the NHL. But the opportunity will simply not be there for a long long time. Barring a major injury to Rinne, Hellberg can only hope to follow a similar trek as Lindback.

    So with all that said, I am throwing my hat in the Kuemper ring as well.
