    Default UFA Goalies

    Any thoughts on Holty vs. Markstrom?
    Both UFAs. Where they move is important(?).
    I would guess Holtby is good more due to WAS and would perform even worse on most other teams?
    Cap is very important. Holtby is due the bigger raise?

    It sounds like WSH are not willing to give Holtby the long term deal that he wants, so it wouldn't surprise me to see him move to a different team in the summer. Performance will depend on the team and the style they play, as we all know the coaching and team structure can make a world of difference to a goalies numbers.

    Do you have to make this decision today? It'd be nice to know Holtby's future first.

    If I had to pick today, I'd pick Markstrom. I'm more confident that he re-signs with VAN and I think he signs for less (maybe far less) than Holtby. Also, I think he'll be an average to above average goalie for the foreseeable future.

    The details of Holtby's future are too mirky for my liking, even though he may be more talented and tested than Markstrom.

    I think both will re-sign with their current teams but if I had to choose one or the other, I think I'd go with Markstrom. I dont think he gets the same dollar amount (he gets less) than Holtby and to be honest I think he's just as good and Vancouver is clearly a team on the rise.

    Give me Markstrom. Holtby has been on a downward spiral for 3 years now. Also, I don't see how Holtby re-signs with WAS, given their cap situation.
    I can't promise I'll try but I'll try to try.

    Agree w/ VinceVega - add to that, they both have good young GK’s challenging them....and look at Samsonov’s stats. Holtby will sign in Buffalo. Or somewhere

    12-team, H2H. Keep 12, but drop 2 of top four skaters, and also 2 of next six, then five more (from end-of-year rankings). One GK max.

    They aren't the only UFA goalies, either. I think Markstrom is a priority for Vancouver, but Holtby less so for Washington.
