Craig Anderson     G     COL Half way through last season, Anderson was the story. He led the shocking Avalanche to an incredible start. While he didn't completely collapse, the team, and his stats, came down to earth in the 2nd half. Because of his high fantasy point totals last season, GMs may overinflate his value. Despite the early success last season, Colorado is still a young, growing team. It wouldn't be surprising to see them miss the playoffs next year. Look to Anderson as a decent #2 option in 2010, no more.

Alex Auld     G     MON Anyone out there have faith that Carey Price will start 60 games in Montreal this season? No? That's where Auld comes in. He's comfortable in the fill-in role, as he's bounced around with those shoes on for his whole career. He'll provide decent numbers when his chance comes around again.

Niklas Backstrom     G     MIN For the past few seasons, Backstrom was considered a fantasy stud. Last season, the Wild made it public that they were tired of boring hockey and wanted to open up the ice a bit. Backstrom's stats took it on the chin. How much of his previous success was due to the system versus his skill is the question to be answered this year. The other factor is Josh Harding may be pressing for more playing time this season, as Backstrom has faced injury woes. Don't write him off, but he's obviously no longer a clear cut #1 option.

Jonathan Bernier     G     LOS Despite the unexpected emergence of Jonathan Quick last season, the Kings still have future plans for Bernier. Don't be surprised to see him steal some starts from Quick and start to get some recognization as the season progresses. Not quite worthy of a starting role on your fantasy squad just yet, but keep him in mind as the season wears on.

Martin Brodeur     G     NJD Some GMs will start to get gunshy when it comes to Brodeur, fearing that he can't do what he does forever. Until he actually shows any sign of decline, show no fear. Brodeur doesn't play a particularly acrobatic style, so being an old man won't affect him like it might other goalies. The Devils will be the Devils and Brodeur will be Brodeur once again in 2010. Rank him as high as you please.

Ilya Bryzgalov     G     PHO It's taken some time, but Bryzgalov has finally made believers out of the hockey world. Since arriving in the desert, he has been the team's MVP, and his efforts were finally rewarded with a Vezina nomination last season. Under coach Dave Tippett, the Coyotes will continue to be committed to tough defense. The team will miss Michalek's shot blocking, but that shouldn't set back Bryzgalov's fantasy numbers. Bryzgalov should continue to be a solid #1 option in net.

Scott Clemmensen     G     FLA Clemmensen's moment in the sun came in 2009 when he filled in for Brodeur and put up some great numbers. Seeing limited action on a Florida team deprived of defensive talent took a predictable tool on his stats last season. With Vokoun in net ahead of him, he won't see more than 20 games and likely won't make it onto a fantasy roster this year.

Crawford has future star potential, and he should get a share of the starts for the Hawks this season. Grab him in the last couple rounds and have the last laugh come spring.

Andre Deveaux     O     TOR
Boyd Devereaux     O     TOR
Rick DiPietro     G     NYI It's no revelation that drafting DiPietro comes with some serious reservations due to his constant health problems. The Islanders as a team are on the rise, and Biron is now playing on the other side of town. When healthy, he'll get every start he can handle. Worth a bench spot to see what happens with his knee.

Brian Elliott     G     OTT At the start of last season, Elliot was presumed to be backing up Leclaire. After a series of injuries and spotty play by Leclaire, Elliot stepped in and stepped up. He finished with some pretty strong numbers and should have the upper hand to get the starts in 2010. However, don't count Leclaire out just yet. He's still a young goalie himself and couple very well get back into the mix. If Elliot gets the starts, he could be a steal, as the Senators should win some games next year.
Dan Ellis     G     TAM Ellis had a short run of glory in Nashville before being bumped from the crease by Pekka Rinne last season. He figured to see very little playing time in Nashville going forward. However, with Niittimaki moving on from Tampa, that leaves a golden opportunity for Ellis to have a second crack at stardom. He'll have to battle Mike Smith for honors, and may ultimately split the crease in 2010-11. Either way, he's in a better situation today. Tampa's defense has become respectable and should continue to improve this year, so Ellis will have adequate support in front of him, even if it's a step down from the protection he saw in Nashville. Chances are good that he'll top his career best of 23 wins next season. With the situation in Tampa stabilizing, consider Ellis as a possible breakout sleeper pick.

Marc-Andre Fleury     G     PIT Fleury has yet to display top notch fantasy numbers, but a few things have changed. First off, he's just now entering his prime in terms of goalie years. It's easy to forget he's only 26, which is about when most goalies break into the league. The Pens loaded up on defensive help this summer for the first time in decades. It all adds up to a potentially hot season for Fleury in terms of fantasy numbers. 40 wins are a given. GAA approaching 2 is in reach.

Mathieu Garon     G     COB With Garon, it's all about potential playing time. He filled in for a decent stretch last season when Mason struggled, but there's no clear indication that he'll see 30 games again this year. Should he emerge as the #1 option in Columbus, you could stuff in on your bench.

Jean-Sebastien Giguere     G     TOR As a team, the Maple Leafs have assembled a top notch defense. So from that perspective, drafting a Toronto goalie could be a respectable option for the first time in a decade. On the other hand, it's 50/50 on which goalie you should pick. Giguere and Gustavsson are in a dead heat for the job and will likely split the starts until one gets hot. Burke obviously likes Giguere, so he may have a slight edge, but you may want to watch training camp before making your choice. Either way, look for improved numbers from Giguere this season.

Mike Green     D     WAS When it comes to defensive scorers, Green is in a class by himself. If your league awards more points for points by a defenseman (as it should), you ought to strongly consider Green as your overall #1 pick. True, his goal totals were way down last season, but he still pounded home 19 and led all blueliners in points with 76. He repeat or improve on those totals in 2010-11. If there's a such a things as a sure thing in fantasy hockey, his name be Mike Green.

Thomas Greiss     G     SAN The door has been opened a bit for Greiss to earn some exta playing time next season. With Nabokov off to Russia, the Sharks brought in Niitimakki to assume the role. However, Niitimakki has had opportunities in the past to establish himself as the workhorse and it has yet to happen. While you can't bank on Greiss getting more than 20 starts at this point, the opportunity is there, should he impress and should Niitimakki struggle. Keep him on the radar.

Jaroslav Halak     G     STL Halak escaped a dysfunctional goalie situation in Montreal to join a Blues team that should be back in the playoff hunt next season. St. Louis has a good stable of defensemen that helped Chris Mason put up some decent numbers last year. Halak proved last season that he's an upgrade over Mason, and for the first time in his career, he's unopposed in net. Expect big things for Halak this year, without the soap opera with Price to distract and eat in into his playing time. Halak should be strong enough to lead the Blues back into the playoffs. He's a solid #2 option if he slides that far.

Backstrom has suffered injuries in the past, so don't be surprised to see Harding's starts continue to rise. The downside is that Minnesota is no longer breeding grounds for great goalie stats with their new attitude towards offense. Even so, if you're looking for a late round pick with breakout potential, he's a fair option.

He managed to put up some good stats last season in Atlanta and made it into the fantasy picture for parts of last season. Now, despite joining a better team, he's relegated himself to cameo appearances behind Brodeur. His minimal fantasy value just went to zero.

The Ducks don't have anywhere near the defense they enjoyed when he broke out a couple seasons back. Gone are the big 3 of Niedermeyer, Pronger and Beauchemin. The Ducks should linger as a playoff contender, and he has no competition, so you can count on his playing time if nothing else. Pencil him in as an adequate #2 option for 30 wins.

Detroit always gives their goalies a shot at great numbers, and that shouldn't change as long as Lidstrom delays retirement. Although he's just a sophomore, he's a safe pick as a #1 option this year. Count on 35 wins and up to 10 shutouts.
Jiri Hudler     O     DET
Cristobal Huet     G     CHI While the prevailing wisdom states that he'll be taking his big contract to the AHL or Europe to relieve some cap space, the bottom line at this point is that he's still on the Hawks roster, and objectively speaking, he's a good goalie. Teams could do a lot worse than his 2.5 GAA and 26-14 record from last season. If another contender with cap space gets desperate enough, Huet may just be a fantasy hockey factor once again before the season is out. At this point, however, he's a big time gamble to say the least.

First off, he's playing in Edmonton, if he's healthy, and can shake DUI charges. His stats have never been fantastic since leaving Phoenix almost a decade ago. If you're in a deep league and desperately need a guy who should at least log minutes, keep him on your list. Otherwise, take a chance on a backup with some upside.

He finished with a strong 2.31 GAA and .920 save %. The Flames as a team have been in a freefall, so he may not get back to 35 wins next season. Kiprusoff generally gets drafted pretty high, so you may count him as overrated. You'll probably find better options later in the draft. He's worthy of a 3rd round selection.

Elliot has assumed the starter role heading into this season, but it's not a stretch to imagine Leclaire reclaiming the job some time in 2010-11. Worth a late round look for a potential comeback year.

If another goalie comes to town, you can slide him off your list; otherwise, pencil him in for a late round gamble.

Henrik Lundqvist     G     NYR When it comes time to spend that 1st round pick, you want to make sure it's not wasted. In terms of goaltenders, Lundqvist has been as consistent as they come since coming into the league. Over the past 5 seasons, his GAA has stayed between 2.2 and 2.5. He finished 7th in fantasy points last season, so he may not be the sexiest pick in the early going, but you know what you're getting with Lundqvist, and that is a very solid #1 goalie.
Joel Lundqvist     O     DAL
Roberto Luongo     G     VAN It's hard to set expectations for Luongo right now. Last year, he topped most draft lists; however, if you took him in the first round, you probably cursed his name a time or two. After a disappointing season which saw all of his stats tumble, his value this fall has likewise gone down. The question is, how far? He's obviously still a good #1 option. Vancouver will be a Cup contender, and he's the undisputed starter when healthy. If he's around in the 2nd Round, take your chances.

Chris Mason     G     ATL The bad news for Mason came in June when Halak showed up to steal his stall in the locker room. Mason had a strong 30-win performance last season, but found himself looking for work when Halak arrived. The good news came July 1 when he signed a deal in Atlanta, where he'll battle Pavelec for the starting job. The Thrashers are building a better team, so there is potential for fantasy value with Mason in the future; however, at least for next season, the stock price has fallen here. Best guess at this point has Mason splitting time, putting the ceiling at 25 wins. Add him as a bench option at best.
Steve Mason     G     COB Steve Mason went from hero to goat boy in a matter of weeks. After a fantastic rookie campaign, he crapped the bed out of the gate last fall. He's still very young and the temptation may be to write him off. Don't be a fool. Mason has a bright future ahead of him, despite his sophomore setback. If you can get him as your 3rd goalie, consider it a steal.

Neuvirth has as much upside as Varlamov, so don't be surprised to see a battle in camp for the #1 job. Sit on him as a possible late round sleeper option, or keep an eye on him as the season goes on.

Antti Niemi     G     CHI It's easy to get excited about Niemi as a top fantasy option in 2010 when you consider he'll be the starter for the defending Cup Champs. One thing to remember is that there is little history on this guy, as he didn't earn his crease until late last season. There are many examples in recent history of goalies bursting on the scene, only to fade in their second season (Leclaire, Mason, Ellis, Price, etc.). There's also the matter with Huet that has to be worked out. Niemi looks like a solid #1 option, but consider him a slight gamble if you're picking him in the early rounds.
Antero Niittymaki     G     SAN For the first time in his career, Niittymaki looks to start the season as the #1 goalie, and what better place to do it than in San Jose. Niittymaki turned in a pretty good season for the Lightning, but there's no comparison here in terms of locale. Assuming the Sharks don't sign a 1B option, you should expect his win total to double next season. His GAA and Save % should also improve with the Sharks. He could conceivable finish the season in the top 5 of fantasy points. You may even be able to grab this steal in a later round.

Atlanta is building a solid group, and may provide a good environment for Pavelec to succeed. Worthy of consideration for your bench to start the year.

Carey Price     G     MON Price has only been in the league a couple of years, and already you could write a book on the ride he's been on. The latest chapter saw him lose his job to Halak last spring, only to see Halak shipped off for next to nothing. While this defaults him back into the starting role, it adds even more pressue to man, particularly if fans have to watch Halak succeed in St. Louis. And more pressue is not what a 23 year old goalie needs in Montreal. The upside is that he's a young, skilled goalie on a borderline playoff team. The Canadiens don't feature a particularly strong defensive team in front of him, so he'll probably see plenty of shots in 2010, if he lasts. No matter how you slice it, drafting Price is a serious gamble.

He proved he's capable of a heavy workload, but perhaps 72 games was a bit too much for the youngster. Don't be surprised to see the Kings incorporate some of their other young netminders into the mix next season, meaning he probably won't match his total of 39 wins next year. As far as a #2 option, he's as good as it gets. The Kings may be one of the top teams in the West next season, and they've got a decent defense in front of him.

Rask had the best stats of any goalie for 2nd half of the season, and he has apparently dethroned Tim Thomas for good. The Bruins will be better next season than last, and Rask should profit.
Andrew Raycroft     G     DAL Landing in Dallas was the best he could hope for after sitting behind Luongo last season. While Lehtonen is the #1 guy in Dallas, his injury history suggests Raycroft will get his shot. While his numbers have been shaky since his sophomore year, the potential is there for a decent season, given the opportunity.

Pekka Rinne     G     NAS Rinne took another step forward last year and established himself as the #1 guy in Nashville, as Dan Ellis has moved on. With Rinne, you can count on steady, but not spectacular numbers. The Predators boast one of the best defensive units in the game, which helps keep the quality and quantity of the shots low that he has to face each night. However, the lack of scoring will limit his potential for wins once more. Rinne has yet to play more than 55 games in a season, so we'll see if he can handle full time duties. As a #2 option, you'll be satisfied.

Bill Thomas     O     PIT
Tim Thomas     G     BOS After winning the Vezina and locking up a long-term deal, things went south for Thomas. Perhaps a change of location would do him good, as Rask has assumed the number one job at this point. He's making too much cash to be relegated to full-time backup, so he'll get some starts and a fair shot in camp to earn his job back. Gamble on him in the late rounds as a 3rd goalie on your squad.

Semyon Varlamov     G     WAS With Theodore leaving town, most GMs assume Varlamov is the guy. And who wouldn't want the starting goalie for the President's Trophy winning team on their roster? The problem here is that Varlamov has done very little to prove he's here to stay as the Capitals top goalie. He may be pushed this fall by Michael Neuvirth, and if neither of them can shine, don't be surprised to see Washington deal for #1. If he can keep the job, Varlamov will get his wins, but there are much safer options out there.

He put up another great year with a .925 save percentage and 7 shutouts; however, a mediocre GAA of 2.55 holds him back. If your league values saves highly, he's a solid #1 goalie. He approached 2000 saves last season once again, and should see a good deal of action in 2010-11. Add to that the possibility that he could be moved in the spring to a contender, and you could find yourself in a good spot come playoff time.

The Hurricanes are officially in full-fledged rebuild mode, making no effort to improve a non-playoff team in the offseason. Ward should get the overwhelming share of the starts, and should see plenty of shots, so he may function as a #2 option, depending on your format.

His shot from the point is the hardest we've seen since Al Iafrate and Al MacInnis retired. 20 goals should be a given this season in Nashville.
