Emery is only less than a year and a hlf older than Ward and just a little over a year older than Lehtonen.  Emery has had great success at every level he has been at and continues to improve every year.

Emery isn't younger than Ward. He has been good through junior and the ahl but not at the level Ward has been. Yes, his nhl stats are better but he's playing behind a much better defense as well.

The next great goalie is Adam Denis who is on the Buffalo Sabres farm team.

stonewall30 is such a homer. Saying Dennis will become a bonafide #1 in the nhl is even stretching it at this point.

Watching one of the AHL games, Pogge needs a few years down in the A to improve his game. My only knock on Rask was his total lack of rebound control during the Juniors, but I wish him sucess in Boston... not too much though. I really don't want him to burn us down the line.

Marc-Andre Fleury has the potential to be good, but it's just the team he has been playing behind that makes it look like he's not going to be. He's big and takes up a lot of the net even when he's down. He can move fast, especially side-to-side. The only problem he may have is his ability to handle the puck. Not everyone can be like Brodeur, but everyone has to have flaws.

I think Wards good, but I don't think he will ever match last years success. I think he'll be good from here out, but no great. He caught fire at the right time. It's going to come down to Fleury and Lethonin. Those 2 will have to grow with their teams if their going to make it anywhere. I personally think Kari is better, but the 2 will find themselves on all star teams for years to come. When it's all said and done, I don't think Ward will be able to tuch Fluery or Lethonin.
