When I think of a goalie controversy, I don’t necessarily think of it as the backup being on fire and the starter not playing well. When I think of goalie controversies, I think of both goaltenders playing well and thus making it extremely difficult for the head coach to make a decision.
Let’s be clear here: Tuukka Rask is the more talented of the two. I don’t think that’s something that can be debatable when looking at the overall body of work. I’m not telling you Khudobin is bad, I’m telling you that when given their overall bodies of work Tuukka Rask is undeniably the better looking of the two.
