Lehtonen has a groin made of wet paper towel. That is my answer and I'm sticking with it.
I've currently got Mrazek as a third goalie, behind Fleury and Schneider. Lehtonen was just dropped. Wondering if he's a better third goalie, given Dallas' strength. He could stand to get more wins than Mrazek, but I'm wondering if Lehtonen will see fewer starts. Should I make a switch, or should I stick with Mrazek?

Moses has a direct line of fantasy hockey knowledge from God himself! Mrazek for sure if you're in a keeper league. Plus he's got more starts than Howard, and will probably continue on that trend.
I've got the Lehtonen and Niemi Handcuff in my league, and it's worked well because Dallas is so good. But as Moses pointed out Lehtonen's groin is made of wet paper towel and it's only 1 ply!

I'd be far less worried about Kari's past issues with groin injuries, he hasn't missed any time in over two years for that reason. His recent concussion issues, the one he's just returning from, and the one he suffered last season, are of bigger worry.
That said unless this is a dynasty or partial keeper where you retain a large percentage of your roster I'd take Kari. Dallas should provide a better shot at the W's and Kari's ratios have been good, especially on the road, and where he's going to be your third you can work around his timeshare with Niemi.
