Goaltending Battle In Anaheim

from Helene Elliott of the LA Times,

Giguere has played one full game and half of another, for a total of 90 minutes. His goals-against average is 2.67 and his save percentage is .902. Hiller has played 89 minutes over two games and has compiled a 2.70 goals-against average and .909 save percentage. That’s too close to call.

“We’re going to give them equal opportunity to play,” Carlyle said. “Our plan is to give Giguere another game and make sure Hiller gets another, and we have [Justin] Pogge here and we have a back-to-back situation. We’ll try to spell that out in that matter and we’ll see where the chips fall.”

Giguere is intent on having them fall in his favor.

“I’m happy where I’m at right now, at this point in September, but I think that’s not where I want to be Oct. 3. I think there’s another notch to go,” he said.
