Please update the thread title to "Lukáš Dostál"

I thought "No Name" was the more apt thread title.

Instead of DosWall, his nickname should be Lukas Godstal

GoalStall

Went with the hyphenated last name and made it plural.

Lukas "Goals-Stalled". Though, not to be confused with his long, lost cousin into the future Prince Lone Starr. I bet both have Liquid Schwartz around.

Dostal in net reminds me of Guy Herbert's story about the team back in the early days:

They'd say, "Shut them out Guy. We'll try to get one for you ..."

Gibson being out is indeed addition by subtraction. He’s just not needed here, and Dostal should definitely get 65% of the starts.

It’ll be really interesting to see what Verbeek does when Gibson gets back

My fav backup is Gerber. Then Stolarz is a very close second.

Bryz? Come on now, not even close.

Bryz? Come on now, not even close.

Bryz is my favorite back up, he started most of the first round games against the Wild in 07 and put up great numbers. Then following year Burke waives him instead of trading him and the Coyotes claim him and he has several great seasons over there as a starter before Philly over pays him as a UFA.

I like Bryz personality. He was a straight shooter who honestly, very intelligent and his "why you Heff to be mad it's only game" became a famous meme that even got added into popular video game 'Overwatch' as one of it's russian characters uses his line and the company behind it had Ducks fans working there as Blizzard is located in Irvine. Bryz never retired in Russia which was interesting, he's stayed in the USA this whole time since he last played and his son is an American goalie prospect, went undrafted I think.

Currently leads the league in Save % at .943 and has faced the most shots in the league.

I want to see Gibson come back from injury long enough to get a goalie fight, put up a couple good games and get traded. Nothing against Gibby for me, but Dostal is just showing hes 100% ready for primetime. Send Gibson to a contender and let him finish off his career playing meaningful hockey somewhere where he doesnt have to save the team night after night.

This obviously won't last, the numbers Dostal is putting up are insane. He's giving the team a chance every night. He's riding a wave of confidence from that summer gold. If he can be above .910 at the end of the season with starting more than half the games, that should be considered an elite season behind this team.
