    Default Varlamov vs Dubnyk

    For next year only who do you think will be better? Cats are wins, GAA and Sv%. Any projections would be very helpful. I can see both in that 10-20 range.

    Dubnyk is the much safer option, in my opinion. Varlamov has had injury problems in his career, and there's a very capable 1B option on Long Island with Greiss. Dubnyk should have more wins, while Varlamov has the higher upside for GAA and Sv% due to the Trotz / Korn system. I'd probably stick with Dubnyk because I know what I'm getting.

    I agree that Dubnyk is the much safer option. Greiss > Stalock. While I believe Varlamov has more upside (i.e., in a world where everything goes perfectly) I also think the chances that he hits it is very small.

    I would not put trust in Varly. He's not earned the trust. I dont care what his contract is.
    Dubs is a better goalie, and will produce better results. Much safer pick.

    Varlamov could surprise just like Lehner last season but we can't dismiss how good Greiss is aswell..
    I think I would roll with Dubnyk as he should get more starts!!

    Dubnyk for me. Greiss versus Varlamov is pretty much a toss-up, even factoring in the contract.

    I'd rather have Dubnyk than Varly on his own, but if you can somehow justify owning both Varlamov and Greiss I think that could be a really awesome tandem to have.

    Dubnyk for me. The situation in Minnesota isnt great but I still prefer them over NYI.

    This is a really good point.

    I'd still want Dubnyk.

    Wouldn't shock me if Greiss starts more games than Varly this year (injuries... ineptitude, etc.)
