The answer is Johnson until he truly struggles. He hasn't given up more than 3 goals in any of his four starts.
Johnson definitely isn't a #1 on a Cup contender. You can see he has physical limitations. He's pretty slow moving in net. However, he simplifies things much like Brian Elliott did. He doesn't overplay the puck and he isn't too aggressive.
Jake Allen still can't do those things. Teams have him figured out. Just confuse him. Make extra passes and Allen will over commit and take himself out of position. We've seen, what, 5-6 years of this? He's getting worse.
You've got to ride the goalie who can keep us in games.
