You can't rank luongo ahead of thomas. Especially after what happened in the most recent round of Hockey.

I can not believe that Crawford is above Howard....

[Sprsquirt7 45]

Its regular season.... luongo is good then. And crawford doesn't deserve to be above howard. Id gladly take howard later in a draft as one of my starters!

I can not believe that Crawford is above Howard....

With the players Chicago has in front of Crawford along with their defensive stats from last season, I don't see why this is a big surprise from a fantasy pool perspective.

On this list of goalies currently listed I would choose Howard over Hiller, Crawford, Vokoun, Brodeur, Niemi, Price, Fleury, Lundqvist and Luongo...Ok so maybe I am a little bias towards our boy Jimmy but as far as Salary, Age and potential goes Im glad I am. Also why is Quick so low? He's been stellar?

These are fantasy rankings.

Considering Howard's fall from grace in the regular season last year I can see why he is ranked so low. I expect him to be top 10 in GAA an Sv% but I'm not entirely surprised.

I am happy his is ranked low. Now I can take him in the 4th round instead of the 3rd round. I think he will have a better year because I think as a team we will be better defensively in front of him helping him keep the confidence from playoffs and helping his numbers through out the season. I think he will be top 10 next season.

This.

I'm shocked at how much praise he has been getting. He had one half of a decent season as a rookie, and is now the starter for a team whose defense got significantly weaker.

15 is about right for Howard in terms in of fantasy numbers.

[Guest 13GoWings40]

Luongo, Price, and Fleury should not be ahead of Howard. The first two are based on reputation and the (canadian) market in which they play. If Pittsburgh hadn't won in '09, Fleury would be an above average back-up at best

ITS A FANTASY RANKING

Luongo had the second best GAA and fourth best Sv%.

Price had the 10th best GAA and 7th best Sv%.

Fleury had the 9th best GAA and 15th best Sv%.

Howard had the 36th best GAA and 33rd best Sv%. His stats took a huge dive last year.
