He's easily one of the best goalies at the AHL level and short of that slip up against Toronto he's proven that his skills translate to the pro level. More of a look is obviously needed to determine Neuvy's true skill level at the top level but I wouldn't discount him just yet. If I'm George McPhee I'm keeping both of them as long as I can. Especially if Varly keeps experiencing problems with his groin.
Obviously one of them will get traded at some point but for now I want both of them. The ironic thing is that some people were suggesting that Theo could become the next Nylander. Either way next year we should have one of the best 1-2 punch at goalie next year with Varly and Neuvy. Not to mention that getting Theo off the books next year will be somewhat refreshing.

Yeah, I'm not saying that we're gonna move Neuvirth any time soon. I think Varly is the better of the two, and he showed it going 11-1 thus far this season. Plus dude is on the Russian national team. That pretty much means you're a super-stud.
But you do agree eventually a trade is gonna happen, and that's really all I was saying.
