    Default Talbot or Miller

    I'm sorting out my keepers right now and can't decide between keeping Miller or Talbot. This will be for my number 1 slot. My current goalies are Miller, Talbot, Smith, Vasilevskiy and Neuvirth (yeah I had goalie problems last year)

    Miller is the starter on Vancouver for sure, Talbot should be the starter for Edmonton, but is not guaranteed.
    Miller is pretty middle of the road on a middle of the road team. Talbot was great last year on an excellent team, but now moving to a middle of the road team and unproven as a starter.

    It's a 12 team league, keep 5, I'm guessing most teams will keep 1 or 2 goaltenders, but they seem to demand a fairly high price in this league.

    I would go fo Miller here; proven talent and the main guy in Vancouver. Had Lack been the backup, I would maybe consider Talbot, but that's not the case.

    Talbot is a gamble that can pay off, but Miller can give you similar numbers with far less risk IMO.

    I would gamble on Talbot. I think Vancouver regress this season, while the Edmonton are trending upward (Hello McDavid). Miller is more proven but he's been average the last couple of years.

    Miller is the safe bet here. Not even sure Talbot can keep his #1 spot for the whole season.

    Considering the crappy defense of Edmonton go for Miller

    Klefbom (rookie !) - Schultz ( defensive side = 0 )

    Sekera (good) - Ference (36 and -17 last year !!)

    Gryba (hitter .. that's all) - Fayne (really bad last year)
