    Default Khabibulin or Boucher over Ellis??

    Ellis has looked shaky and Smith very strong thus far.

    Do I dump Ellis for Khabibulin or Boucher? Which one is a better #2 for my squad, or do I ride it out with Ellis?

    Thanks

    Pre-Season is just that and Smith is very injury prone. I stick it out with Ellis as Boucher hasnt been any better and Khabby is such a big question mark!

    That's almost a question of which goalie do you want the least...

    Khabi is injury prone and plays for a terrible team.
    Boucher is only starting because the starter is injured and even at that is being threatened by a rookie.

    So I would say stick it out with Ellis too.

    that is it exactly, which is the best of the worst?

    I thought Ellis would preform much better, but I understand that this is only preseason, and I have no faith at all in Smith, but I wonder if Boucher may be a better start for the first month or so...

    Khabibulin! better SV% and GAA then those 2 bums. He's healthy and he owes it to the Oilers organization to put in a great season after last years embarrassment.

    I thought I heard somewhere that Khabibulin won't be available for the first month because he'll be serving jail time. Can someone confirm or deny this? Rotowire says he will be the starter, for the record.

    I have Ellis, but I really hate platoons. I'm starting to think I may dump Ellis for Khabibulin. I could pick up Smith for the cuff, but I hate carrying the extra G in a H2H. All my forwards should be good, and I don't want to dump any of them.
