Alex Stalock is never going to be a number one goaltender, but he has proven for the Minnesota Wild that he can be a perfectly able backup goalie.
However, when you look at his usage; at most he’ll see about fifteen games this season and once more, if the team makes the play-offs, they’ll head there with an exhausted Dubnyk.
The Minnesota Wild need to be smart now and give Alex Stalock some starts against slightly lesser opposition, rather than only giving him a shot on the back-to-back games in the schedule.
Thus far this season, he’s played four games, all on back-to-backs.
