I think he should get the start against the coyotes too be honest.

I wouldn't be shocked if Robin Lehner was our no.1 by the end of this season. We'd get a nice return for Andy, and Lehner looks like he's going to be a star.

 

[DrakeAndJosh]

He's proven himself over and over, he's ready to be a #1 IMO.

 

[SensfaninToronto*]

who becomes our backup then, -im pretty sure Auld is FA

 

[ReginKarlssonLehner]

There's always a serviceable backup available for really cheap in UFA or deadline.

Lehner will be the next superstar. However, he still has some tendencies to let in bad goals so I'd still want Anderson here until at the very least the deadline to push him and let him truly earn it.

 

[HavlatMach9]

He catches weird, but seems to catch a puck no matter how fast it's coming.

 

[dumbdick]

I'm always a little bit hesitant of that one average season he had in the A.

I'm always a little bit hesitant of that one average season he had in the A.

Binghamton was also scary bad that season, though.

 

[Icelevel]

haven't seen enough of him yet. so far so good though

And, Anderson doesn't let in bad goals? Every second game he lets in bad goals.

I have to agree. Still don't think he's truely ready to carry the load for an entire season, but Andy's been **** other than our first game. I say give the bulk of the starts to Lehner until he's off his game or Anderson gives them a reason to start playing him consistently again.

That would amount to anointing Lehner as the #1. It's too early for that, regardless of Lehner's superior play to this point.

Agreed. Maclean should use the hot goalie and right now, lehner is hot. Yes, we lost both games, but we could have ended up way worse if it wasn't for lehner. He kept it a one goal game against a very hot sharks team and he played great in the ducks game too.

 

[Milan the God*]

Lehner is scary good. Factor in age and potential and he very well could be the next big thing goaltending-wise in the NHL.

I think he is ready to be a number one. For some reason, i feel like he is more confident in himself then anderson is. I feel like he is much calmer in net then anderson is at certain times. I don't know why i have that feeling, but i just do. He kept us in the sharks game and if it wasn't for the team ******** the bed in the ducks game, it would have been another close game thanks to lehner.

the thing that worries me about trading andy is that Lehner MIGHTt lose his "Compete" he will get that safe sense and he might get to comfortable

There is no need to trade anderson unless you want to get back some assets. Just make anderson the backup and lehner the starter.

 

[Savannah Skunk]

I love Lehner and am glad he plays for our club..., but wasn't Andy the 'next' Team USA starting goaltender everyone was drooling over after his season debut against the sabres? We still have some good years left with Andy in nets. Memories are very short.

 

[ReginKarlssonLehner]

And, Anderson doesn't let in bad goals? Every second game he lets in bad goals.

You don't get it.

Lehner's potential is so much higher than Anderson. Just cause Anderson does it doesn't mean Lehner should.

Heck, if Anderson didn't let in bad goals he would be top 5 goalie in league. I'm saying we should still continue to develop Lehner as backup and continue to fix his game by being pushed with Anderson in his way.

He is much more poised, fixed his rebound control and is not flopping as much as he used to last year. Even the bad goals haven't happened yet on 97 shots.

I just want Lehner to be the best he can be because then it could be mental difference of 1 cup vs couple/multiple cups.

He'll have to keep up that confidence to earn the job.

Yup and this is why trading Andy probably hasn't even crossed Bmurr's mind.

What could we get back for Andy honestly, i hear edm is interested

maurthur turris yakapov

If I'm Murray... I will be calling for Yakupov like crazy. Anderson alone won't get it done though. A guy like Cowen/Ceci would have to be in talks to but I would still consider it.
