Huh? I stopped posting goalies names because most hadn't played yet. So it has yet to be determined whether scouts have improved or not.

Not really. Luongo is established.
The other 3 have combined for 105 games. Of which, 50 are Dipietro's breakthrough season. The other 55 games are a putrid reminder of why goalies shouldn't play in the NHL before they're 20. So far though, Fleury clearly ranks 4th on that list.

A "price" is an agreed upon equilibrium between the producer and consumer on the value of a product. If consumers walk away from you thinking Pittsburgh is full of crackheads... that is not a "price", it is a pipe dream.
