It depends who they are. Cory Schneider should have been a starter 2 years ago, and Jonathan Bernier should be getting an opportunity at the very least.
And look at the numbers today compared to years ago. Patrick Roy's save percentage from his time in Montreal would be replacement-level today, including the 2 years he won the Cup where he was under .900.
