A good list of recent Kings goaltending history, but Garon played well enough here to warrant staying. On this still ****** defensive team, he still managed to play over .500 - even when hurt.
JLB has not impressed after bascially being given the #1 job when all other available goalies couldn't do it.
Ersberg looks good, so hopefully he'll be the #1 next year.
If by "Bernier wasn't ready," you mean he wasn't ready to be hung out to dry by his "Defense" game after game, I'll agree with that.
Like others have posted, until the D gets better, it really doesn't matter who is in net.
Cloutier? - when is he gonna get bought out? There is no realistic place for him here, just like 2 years ago.
