Is Fernandez a playoff caliber goalie?

He's only played in 11 playoff games. A 1.99 GAA so he's done well in his limited time.

I think all good teams start with the goaltender. I would give a a decent amount for Turco

I am not saying I dont like ferny. I do. And was glad when he asked for a trade, but my lists of goalies for us to try and get went like this:

Gigure---resigned
Nabokov---off the block now that toskla is gone
Voukoun---traded to florida
Manny Fern

And when I heard turcos name being brought into discussions, I got excited, because I have him higher then all those goalies.

Then again, this is just a bruin fan getting greedy. I would gladly welcome Fern with open arms.

Gotta have a better defense. Anaheim and Ottawa had the best defenses going into the playoffs. That's why they ended up playing each other.

You can have a Marty Turco type goalie, but if your D stinks, you're not going anywhere.

Brian Raflaski is someone I would watch for the bruins. A Claude Julien connection could land him here.

Scott Hannan, Aaron Miller, Sean O'Donnell, Ossi Vaananen (He's a RFA - if a team offers him a contract, Colorado has chance to match offer), Mathieu Schneider, Danny Markov, Sheldon Souray, Greg Zanon, Brian Rafalski, Tom Preissing, Nick Boyton (Phoenix looking to move him), Cory Sarich and Brent Sopel

You can thank Crowned for that one.
