IIRC, this may be (with Vegas as 31st team) the first time I can ever recall a goalie shuffle where every NHL starter AND backup from previous year is still with an NHL team as starter OR back-up.
True?
Here's what I got:
Shuffle 1: ARI --> Mike Smith --> CGY --> Brian Elliott --> PHI --> Steve Mason --> WPG --> Ondrej Pavelec --> NYR --> Antti Raanta --> ARI
Shuffle 2: NEW GUY: A.Forsberg --> CHI --> Scott Darling --> CAR --> Eddie Lack --> CGY --> C.Johnson --> BUF --> Anders Nillson --> VAN --> Ryan Miller --> ANA --> Jon Bernier --> COL --> Calvin Pickard --> VEG
Shuffle 3: 3rd-to-Backup: Stalock (MIN) --> Darcy Kuemper --> LA --> Ben Bishop --> DAL --> Antti Niemi --> PIT --> MA Fleury --> VEG
Is there any new rising-up goalies this year?
Doesn't feel like it.
Did I miss anybody?
Has any main starter or back-up from 2016-2017 not have a job?

Thanks.
I don't think Hutchinson could be considered an NHL back-up when last year ended.
Montoya - yes, I've heard Lindgren might be considered - though I don't see the harm for the Habs in letting Lindgren still get lion's share of AHL games and letting Montoya play out that last year.
Only one of Kuemper or Zatkoff will be in the NHL next year as a backup.
And it looks like Mrazek or Coreau will be waived/traded.
Also, I doubt Mazanec sees NHL time this year.
