Maybe you run into Price or Lundqvist if you get to the finals (in which case, who cares? House money). Otherwise the only goalie in the West that really worries me is Crawford. Crawford isn't even that amazing, he just plays his ass off against us. The rest are just as untested as Allen and no any more talented.
Unless you're willing to say that Frederik Andersen has arrived or that we should ignore Rinne's lack of post-season experience and recent scuffles, I just don't see a goalie situation in the West where I think "damn, we're outmatched here".
I'd be surprised if we get bounced due to goaltending like we did against the Avalanche when Roy just absolutely outclassed Turek.

More I think about you are right, I guess its the beat down Blues fan in me that expects the worse.
