San Jose goalie situation
I know its playoff time but does anyone see stalock stealing the #1 gig from niemi for next year or is this niemi's team?

Re: San Jose goalie situation
Isn't Stalock a UFA due to GP?
Re: San Jose goalie situation
It's a veteran team. Niemi has a cup in his pocket. He has a another year left on the contract. Stalock is RFA.
The crease in San Jose will belong to Niemi.
Re: San Jose goalie situation
I believe Stalock qualifies for UFA status due to career GP. Regardless I don't think Niemi is in any danger anytime soon.

Re: San Jose goalie situation
OK thanks guys. I just wanted a second opinion on the situation and you guys pretty much confirmed what I thought
Re: San Jose goalie situation
Neimi is the uncontested starter but Stalock will be decent if you need someone to fill in starts on occasion.
Neimi should play 60-65 games if healthy so 17-22 starts for the backup can have some value with a good team playing in front of them
Re: San Jose goalie situation
I didn't watch the game last night, but purely from a stats point of view, Stalock had an average night - 26 saves on 30 shots; 0.866 SV%.
I would be shocked if they didn't go back to Niemi for game 7.
