Price is one cool customer for a kid his age. I think mentally, he has a great mindset--never too up-never too down. Usually very good positioning (a big fella)--no excess movement--square to the shooter and lets the puck come to him. Not as mobile as Fleury-Got tired at the end of the year and struggled a bit --had trouble making the "big save" in the play-offs, and that is critical.

So far Fleury has made the big save time and again. The next round will be the big test--I do not think Pittsburgh can roll the Red Wings like they have done for most of the play-offs. I realize Fleury struggled early--but almost every good young goalie has at one time or other--From Pat Roy, to Pelle Lindbergh-to Grant Fuhr--it takes time to "get it" as a goalie. I still think he is very gifted and I take him over Price as well.

Osgood is just a solid, reliable, NHL goalie. Not particularly flashy--but can be as good as anyone. Underrated, and experienced--he is just consistent. Rarely lets in the soft goal--but has less propensity to make the unreal save.
