Look at Winnipeg. How many times have people called for Pavlec to be punted to the curb ? Yet he's still there. I think were in the same boat with our current goalies an it's on the team to play better as a group.

Pavlec's been under contract. Hiller and Ramo are UFA's after this season.
It's something that needs to be addressed eventually, and if a deal makes sense, it would be silly to just ignore that problem because the defense isn't playing well at the moment.
It's difficult reading the handful of people saying "the greatest goalies of all time wouldn't help this team right now".
Yes, they sure would. A competent goalie would make a big difference and help everything else fall into place. Everything starts and stops with good goaltending and what we're getting now isn't even bordering on competent.
