Buffalos goaltending situation has been crazy.

Ryan Miller
Jhonas Enroth
Michal Neuvirth
Nathan Lieuwen
Matt Hackett
Connor Knapp

all started games for them this year, plus Jaroslav Halak and Andrey Makarov dressed as backup. Just bizarre, never seen anything like it. After trading Miller, Enroth and Neuvirth both went down with injuries and they traded Halak again, so suddenly they had their AHL duo Lieuwen and Hackett up, only to see them go down with injuries as well, so they had to call up Knapp and Makarov ... their AHL farmteam had a tandem of Mark Guggenberger (another former Aces goalie!) and Kevin Kapalka dressed tonight, none of which had played any AHL games previously.
