I came into this year with (very) cautious optimism for AA, and early returns are really promising. If he can continue playing this well I'll shed the caution pretty quickly.

Yammy has really progressed since his draft year. Hopefully he’s next in line of elite Russian goalies. You really have an interesting duo with him and Hildeby. And also Peksa, who was on Artur’s junior team in Russia.

Seems like we have two solid goalie prospects on the Marlies. Is having Murray as our 3rd goalie worth it when those two guys should be splitting the net?

YES

Odds are high one of our goalies will get dinged at some point.
Being able to call up Murray and not disrupt the development of the young guys is a huge advantage.

If one of our goalies are dinged come playoff time having a 2 time cup winning goalie backing up is far preferable than one of the kids.

I was at the Leafs vs Tampa game and watched Hildabeast in the warmups closely.
Pucks were consistently beating him.
Shortly there after he got shelled in St louis. He may be a NHL goalie. He isn't that level yet.

Yeah you are right, I forgot for a minute that pne of our goalies is Joseph Woll.

There’s the long grind of a pro hockey season Minten isn’t conditioned to. Give him time in AHL to develop out of the spotlight and work through consistency in his offensive game
