Rinne/ Lundquist a carbon copy?





I have been watching these 2 guys for the last few years and have been comparing numbers. I have come to the conclusion that they are more or less twins. take a look at the number below and tell me which goalie you would rather have. we will compare the last 3 year thats a good sample size
Rinne
2008-09 GAA 2.38 SV% .917 Wins 29 Saves 1316 Shutouts 7 Goalie rating 113
Lundquist
2008-09 GAA 2.43 SV% .916 Wins 38 Saves 1839 Shutouts 3 Goalie Rating 113.1
Dead even here
Rinne
2009-10 GAA 2.53 SV% .911 Wins 32 Saves 1404 Shutouts 7 Goalie rating 104.06
Lundquist
2009-10 GAA 2.38 SV% .921 Wins 35 Saves 1942 Shutouts 4 Goalie Rating 124.1
Edge Lundquist
Rinne
2010-11 GAA 2.12 SV% .930 Wins 33 Saves 1771 Shutouts 6 Goalie rating 140
Lundquist
2010-11 GAA 2.28 SV% .923 Wins 36 Saves 1813 Shutouts 11 Goalie Rating 124.2
this one could go either way depending on the league stats

Rinne 6.05 ft 207lbs
Lunquist 6.01 ft 198lbs

Obviously this does depend on the stat catagories in your league. but from the looks of things you can't really go wrong with either one.
same build, same style, Rinne is a year yonger than Lundquist
Lundquist works a bit harder due to the lack of  D on his team
If your keeping a goalie it looks like a toss up
