Every position and player on an NHL roster has their role and their part to play in order to make the team successful. Perhaps one of the most difficult positions is that of the goaltender. He can steal a game, but he can also lose a game with a deflating goal at the wrong time. With training camp just around the corner and rosters starting to take shape, here is a look at the projected starting goaltenders and back-ups in the Western Conference.
Anaheim Ducks- Jonas Hiller
Although it was J.S Giguere who helped lead the Ducks to their first Stanley Cup, he soon fell out of management's good graces and young Jonas Hiller inherited the starting job. Last season Hiller was given a new contract and Giguere was traded, cementing Hiller's place as Anaheim's starter.
Calgary Flames- Mikka Kipprusoff
Perhaps the only reason that the Flames were a few points out of a playoff spot last season was the play of Mikka Kipprusoff. He's been one of the better players in the Flames line-up over the past few seasons, and will counted upon again for a Calgary team that hasn't gotten better. The Flames have a couple of good goalie prospects in the system, but haven't yet signed an NHL capable back-up.
