Personally, I'd rather they not take a goalie before round 4 since they're such a crapshoot + Fucale is smallish for a goalie at 6'1... I want big 'tenders going forward.

I agree with this again. But I would be okay with using a 3rd on a goaltender in most years, but I really think we shouldn't draft a goaltender this year. We have drafted a couple solid goaltender prospects over the past 2 years, I think doing the same a 3rd year in a row. I would prefer to wait until 2014. Now if Fucale or Comrie somehow ended up available in round 4 I would have no problem with it.
But I do think the focus in this years draft should be bentermen, physical wingers and defensemen,
all with size for the most part. I really think this year is a good opportunity to add a couple future power forward types.
