WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING:

"Missed camp and first two months of season with knee injury, but remains legitimate prospect." (Rick Carpiniello, The Hockey News Future Watch 1999)

"Was very good, almost great, for a weak Portland team in 1998-99. Large goaltender with decent mobility, Labarbera looks like he may have the right stuff to play in the NHL one day. However, his best bet is to get traded to a team in need of goaltending depth and hope for a break." (The Sports Forecaster 1999-2000, p. 110)

"A talented well-built stopper who needs to be pushed to get his work level up." (Rick Carpiniello, The Hockey News Future Watch 2000)

"Somewhat of a dark-horse prospect for New York. This '98 pick has the size and mobility to one day play in the NHL. Labarbera is used to work, playing on weak clubs before landing on a contending Spokane team late last season. Save percentage has always been good. Needs to work on consistency." (The Sports Forecaster 2000-01, p. 99)

"Probably Rangers' best goalie in camp. Needs to stay in shape physically." (Rick Carpiniello, The Hockey News Future Watch 2001)

"One of many young Rangers goalteners, Labarbera needs to impress during the preseason in order to maintain his prospect status. He has the potential to become a solid backup netminder but nothing more." (The Sports Forecaster 2001-02, p. 101)

"LaBarbera has been the best goaltender in the AHL since 2003-04, but the Rangers' depth in young netminders led to a move to Los Angeles. LaBarbera could battle Mathieu Garon for the No. 1 job in 2005-06, but LaBarbera's lack of NHL experience could hurt his chances of winning the job." (The Sports Forecaster 2005-06, p. 102)
