Best bang for your buck goalies
Just started thinking and preparing for my league draft. I will eventually get dobber's guide and predictions, and use fantasy geek to get projected point totals. But wanted to throw this question out there for discussion.
Which goalies will offer the most production relative to their actual cap hits? (Speaking generally, but my league counts wins, saves, shut outs, and goals against.) The way my league is set up, cheap good goalies are super valuable. The last couple years, Gibson, Anderson, Jones were solids picks. Now they all have new contracts. Rask, Quick, Lundqvist, etc. are practically undraftable in my league because of their super high cap hits.
Who are the best cheap goalies this year (looking more at starters, so someone like Korpisalo or Matt Murray is less appealing)?
It's a keeper league and Hellebuyck is already owned by someone else. So he's off the table.
I think Jones might be best starter for 3M/year for two more years.
Jake Allen has one more year left at 2.35
Gibson's new contract is 2.3 (but bernier is in anaheim and might take away too many starts?)
Elliot is 2.5 but will he get any wins in calgary?
Lehner is 2.25 but will be get any wins in Buffalo?

Re: Best bang for your buck goalies
I like Jones at that salary...
I would also consider Talbot... a bit more.. but I think this is the year for the Oil.

Jones, Elliott and Gibson are my top 3.

Re: Best bang for your buck goalies
This is why leagues need to scale up from the NHL salary cap. Who wants to be in a league that celebrates 4th liners and back up goalies over star players.

Re: Best bang for your buck goalies
I agree, there's going to be a league discussion about upping the values (more points for wins, etc) for goalie stats to make them as valuable as the top skaters. That way spending 6+ mil on a goalie is as advantageous as spending that 6mil on a first line forward.
