    Default Raanta...where do we go from here

    in a league where we count W, Sv Pct, GAA, I have The King, Schneider and Raanta. Yes..I know....

    AZ can't and shouldn't be THIS bad (but if you watch the games, they sorta are). Khudobin, Hutton and Nilsson are on the wire. Raanta would qualify as a keeper for next year but my SV Pct and GAA are awful, would the above part-timers be better than full-time Raanta?

    Thanks in advance.

    Nilsson would be the one as he has the ability to potentially steal the number 1 gig... unless you need the games played each week I’d keep Raanta on the bench as opposed to cutting him right now

    I would rather keep Raanta. The rest of this season and especially next season will be better.

    Agree with EB, do you have another goalie or somebody else to drop and pick up a backup.

    I would keep him as well. Zona still has many prospects in the pipeline and the future still looks bright

    Sadly I don't. My roster is fairly solid, which explains the dearth of quality goaltending. Guess I'll just hope between the he, Lundy and Schneider I can stay mid pack in terms of numbers but trending in bottom third at this point.

    I think you’ll stay bottom third and even worse if wheels fall off Schneider

    He and Lundy are not ideal but it is what it is. Ill keep an eye on Schneider but, as a pro, he doesn't play well in Winn. Wonder if players/goalies have problems seeing the puck in certain arenas. I'll stay competitive in wins and right now, even in the bottom third in sv and gaa I'm a few points out of a money spot so it's ride it out. Trying to move offense to get better in goal opens holes where none are. Thanks for the advice all!
