At the beginning of the year people said Vlad wasn't an NHL goalie, he shouold be dropped and Cooley brought up.
Second half of the year Vlad was better and Cooley was then the non-NHLer.
TBF, every backup looked bad in preseason, but Cooley has played well in his two starts. It's good because now Conroy doesn't have to go hunting for a backup.
