goalie prospect question

we said 30 games or less to be farm team eligible. does that mean 30 games started or 30 games played?

That means 30 games played for goaltenders. I believe it's something like 50 games for skaters.

and we go with hockeydb as the website for the number of games played?

Sure

Agreed.

I have Niemi at 14 games thus far. 3 last year and 11 this year.

He might be close to 30 by the end of the year. Will be interesting to see what happens

yeah i see 13 but then i guess he played today too. he has these numbers for that site and yahoo. wikipedia had something different but im pretty sure it is wrong. i hope niemi becomes a starter before the beginning of next year but would still qualify for the prospect team.

It sure will be fun to watch how many games he ends up with. If memory serves, Richard caught a tough break with Elliott last year. I think he played just a few over the limit.

38 games played for CHI thus far, leaves 44 remaining games. Niemi must not play in more than 11 of them if my math is correct.

Going to be very interesting. He was my next pick Brandon by the way.

Actually, he can play another 16 games without losing his farm team eligibility.

Yes, you are correct.
