It certainly would save you some mula.

We all know that Sean brought Eddie Lack to the studio because he was the backup goaltender in Vancouver. It seems a little lazy just to pull a guy from your own backyard. Could we aim a little higher next time?

Let's just hope they don't stop mocaping goalies now that they had this session with Eddie. Maybe we can get a starter next time? I hear Ryan Miller is it doing anything special right now.
Lol c'mon, is this sarcasm?

Eddie Lack is a top tier goalie because he's in the NHL. He's perfected the same basic moves, saves, positions, etc. as Carey Price and any other goalie. Unless EA is aiming for authentic styles on a goalie-by-goalie basis (maybe someday, but not this year), there's absolutely no difference between using Eddie Lack and any other professional goaltender for motion capture, even if they were to pull a guy from the AHL.
