    Default Drop Gibson or Andersen?

    I can only roster three goalies and need to drop someone. I've been waiting the Anaheim situation out and I've avoided making any moves by keeping a healthy Andersen on my IR.

    Do I:

    a) Drop one of them
    b) Drop both and pick someone else up
    c) Drop both and Run with two goalies and pick up a FA forward

    I'd drop Gibson. After a two bad games in a row against two bad teams (Carolina, Buffalo) I think he will be sent back down and Andersen will be the guy again.

    Part of me says wait until it actually happens but I think it will. They can just call up Khudobin.

    Will that happen though if Khudobin has been placed on waivers? Who'd back up Andersen then?

    I have Andersen along with Halak, and an owner has asked me about trading away one and I was tempted by Andersen, but I think he'll be back on top soon. I may have a little bit of personal bias, but 35 - 12 last year keeps me thinking he'll be back and the team will follow.

    Exactly, cut the bullshit and run with Andersen...... he was doing fine when the team was scoring 8 goals in 11 games and you give up on him that easily??

    What's the rest of your team though? And what goalies/forwards are on the wire?

    Khudobin cleared waivers. Nobody claimed him so they can call him back up whenever.

    Khudobin was never a threat to challenge for 1A; Gibson is. I don't think things go back to 'business-as-usual' from this point on. If ANA can swing a trade for a spark-plug, they can be decent again.
