    Default Drop Talbot for Hellebuyck?

    Thinking I've been patient long enough for Talbot to turn it around. Should I snag Hellebuyck now or wait to see if this isn't just a little streak and he is just going to be sent down when Pavelec returns? here are some other options on the WW:

    Hiller
    Bernier
    Ramo
    Gibson
    Khudobin
    Hutchinson
    Lehner

    Any advice is greatly appreciated. Team and scoring cats in sig.

    as in the last post (by Lannys All Stars)...http://forums.dobbersports.com/showt...Is-Talbot-Done

    Talbot is a tricky kid.

    I WOULD NOT move Talbot for Hiller/Ramo (just disgusting at the moment), and Bernier and Lehner are just too unknown (health/Performance). Looking at the tandem in Winnipeg, I think I WOULD flip who COULD be the #1 in Edmonton (Talbot) for who COULD be the #1 in Winnipeg (Hutch/Hellebuyck). But which one?

    In a Keeper, I would definitely move Talbot for Hellebuyck and would also do so for Gibson. These 2 kids are special and I'd sooner wait on them(Bigger Boom) then wait on Talbot (Potential Bigger Bust)

    No brainer for me too. Even if Nilsson melts down and Talbot takes over again EDM defense is simply not good enough for him to post good numbers. Much higher upside and same level of risk on taking Gibson and Hellebuyck.

    Pretty much all top goalie prospects bust. I wouldn't bother with Gibson.

    I would. There is a chance Hellebuyck could steal the #1 job but at very worst I think he will be #2, maybe less starts than Talbot but with EDM weak defence his numbers will take a hit. WPG just a better team and Hellebuyck just the better option at this point.
