I doubt that actually. I don't know of any good #1 goalies that will be moving this year.
But for people saying it wasn't Cloutier's fault, he let in 16 goals in 3 games. That's over 5 per game as an average. If the offence expected to score 6 goals a game to win? Every Stanley cup winner has had one thing in particular, a stellar goalie. The goalie is everything when it comes to the playoffs because if the opposing team plays a great defence and shuts down your best players, he can still steal the game.
Best example was Montreal's last cup in 93. That team should never have even made the finals, but Patrick Roy stole 11 overtime games with incredible saves.
