Not commenting on who's the better goaltender, contract status, etc... But, I like giving Reto a bunch of starts here... Who knows, we may see Ramo get 8 or 9 of the next 10 after tonight. Whatever happens, I don't think it's a clear cut message from the organization as to who our #1 goalie is... Just trying to give each guy a clear chance, instead of a 1 or 2 game audition like we've seen in the past.

Sorry but I just can't follow your logic. I agree that a goalie has a chance to relax and play his game when he isn't afraid he'll be yanked every time he makes a mistake. So how can we expect Ramo to find his game?
I also can't understand how playing Berra like he's one of the premier starters in the game is "trying to give each guy a clear chance".
Like a lot of people, I can understand why Berra is being put ahead of Ramo right now but don't think his play merits the number of starts he's getting and don't think it's fair to Ramo who must feel like if he doesn't get a shutout he's not going to get a start for another month.
