No.14 Justin Pogge

14. Justin Pogge



This is the third goaltender on the list so far

Pogge was selected in the 3rd round of the 2004 draft, Pogge has excellent jr credentials, namely backstopping Canada to a gold medal at the 2005 U20’s. He’s a big athletic goaltender who covers a lot of the net at 6’3 205 pounds. His biggest problem is inconsistency and the ridiculous expectations placed upon him by Leafs Nation.

Pogge if he plays well this year could force the ducks to move JS Giguere or Jonas Hiller. With Hiller due for a contract extension at the very LEAST Pogge is likely the 2010 backup goaltender because one of the current 1a/1b combo will be gone, so finally Pogge sees a light at the end of the tunnel and there is less pressure on him so this could be the Ducks goalie of the future.
