    Default Your NHL team made the playoffs - Pick a goalie to take you to the cup.

    This may not be your favorite goalie, the guy with the best style, but you need a guy to get down and dirty, someone who can carry game after game for you - who is YOUR guy?

    I would personally have to go with Henrick. The guy is so consistant and has a lot of experience. As long as hes healthy, hes my guy.

    A close second would be Tim Thomas - Case and point - he wont the cup last year.

    My third would be Carey Price - The kid is just cool under fire!

    rask is good, but to say you would pick him to take you....i dont know

    Tim thomas hands down

    and fleury would be a close second, and Rinne would be even closer third.

    Thomas(experience), Lunquist and Rinne are tied for second, Mason(cause he's a full righty like me).
    A goalie must have one overriding quality-- he must want to be a goalie. - Emile Francis
    Nobody understands the position who hasn't played it. Hockey is a team game, but for a goalie, it's more like an individual sport. - John Garrett

    Tim Thomas. He admitted he was nervous last year, but played through it like he had ice in his veins. If that's playing with jitters, excuse me while I go get a dozen cups of coffee.

    I think I'd go with Thomas (26-17, 2.06, 0.935%) or Fleury (41-28, 2.52, 0.910) , I'd even go with Kiprusoff as his stats are solid (25-28, 2.32, and 0.921 %)

    Unfortuanetely i guess i have to say Thomas as well.
    Have you ever had a dream that you were so sure was real? What if you could not wake up from that dream, how would you tell the difference between the real world and the dream?
