    Default How would you rank these 5 goalies?

    For the stats in my sig. I'm looking for a goalie as mostly likely a one year investment, so focus on this season only.

    J. Gibson
    Varlamov
    Dubnyk
    Elliott
    Luongo

    thanks

    For 2016/17 only:
    Dubnyk
    Gibson
    Luongo - if Lu was ready to go earlier in Oct, I'd have him above Gibson, I think the Ducks are going to struggle this year.

    I can't believe I'm saying this, as I'm not a fan, but Dubnyk. Most clear cut starter likely to remain healthy. Elliott probably puts up better peripherals and Luongo would be my choice if he wasn't starting the season on the shelf. But because of those factors, I think I lean towards Dubnyk.

    Forgot to rank so:

    Dubnyk
    Elliott
    Luongo
    Gibson (I'm worried about the Ducks this year, they don't have a great supporting cast)
    Varlamov
    Without me, it's only "aweso".

    Focusing on this year only....

    Dubnyk
    Gibson
    Elliott
    Varlamov
    Luongo.

    If not for the injury, I'd probably have Lou at the top of my list but he's out for a bit and it's unknown how he will come back. Too much uncertainty around his injury for me.

    Three clear starters on too. Elliott is awesome, and if he's healthy he's a tier above the rest. Even if he misses 15-20, he's still really good.
    Minny over Anaheim (and Gibson's health questions) fills those two out.

    Of the bottom two, Luongo's stats beat Valamov. Even with the injury and Reimer, I take him over Varlamov and his injury history, team, and Pickard knocking on the starter's door.

    Dubnyk, Elliott, Gibson. I don't even consider Varlamov (he could lose his starting job) or Luongo (injury + a very capable back up).

    I just think Dubnyk is the safest option, given how brittle Gibson and Elliott are...

    I completely agree with this ranking based on your stats.

    I bounce Lou down but not to the bottom as I think he will be at worse in a time share

    have no real interest in Varly right now, not until he does something this season

    Gibson (finally has the gig to himself, if he stays healthy he should easily top this list)
    Dubnyk (downgraded due to Boudreau factor, Kuemper will start more than he deserves to, BB is really cancer for fantasy goalies)
    Elliott (wouldnt be surprised if he was ahead of Dubs by season end)
    Varlamov (Band Aid Boy and overrated IMO)
    Luongo (he will put up good ratios but he might only start 45-50 games)

    J. Gibson 2 - Knowing the job is his will help his confidence and produce decent numbers
    Varlamov 5 - Think he loses a bunch of starts to the young guy coming in.
    Dubnyk 3 - slow start with a new system/coach, but will have decent second half
    Elliott 1 - if he can stay healthy I think the flames have a lot of winning to do and solid defense in front of him.
    Luongo 4 - injury pull shim down from the 2/3 slot

    Varly seems to be the consensus worst guy on the list. Definitely bumped him to the bottom now.

    Luongo is an interesting one; I can handle the injury early on in the season as it's h2h an I don't see any problem making the playoffs. I think I could get Luongo but make sure I also grab onto Reimer. If I didn't get him I bet he'd be easy to acquire or would get dropped when Lou got healthy. Then again it's a pain carrying around 2 goalies on one team when you don't have to.

    and that's the big problem with Lou now - will he be a vaule pick? yes - he's old and is injured (also means no re sale value IMO) but will give you good peripherals as will Reimer but you lose potentially 20-30 starts by not carrying a genuine third goalie

    I'd basically tier them as follows:

    Dubnyk/Elliott/Gibson - arguments for these 3 in any order at the top can be made.

    Luongo - injury and age and capable backup put him here, still a tier above...

    Varlamov - not remotely a lock to still be the starter by the time Luongo returns from injury. I think there's a good chance he gives the fewest starts of this group, and is probably the least valuable, especially for a year window.
