What the biggest challenge for Antti Niemi, Kari Lehtonen is with the Stars' two-goalie system

Mike Heika recently held a chat to talk all things Dallas Stars. Here are some highlights:

Question: What do you think are some of the biggest challenges of the two-goalie system for Antti Niemi and Kari Lehtonen? Can imagine it doesn't help knowing if they're going to play that day or the next day.

Heika: They actually know long in advance when they are going to play, but because Lindy Ruff does not like to announce his goalie, they are sworn to secrecy.

I think the biggest challenge is getting the right rhythm.
