You're going to spell "Fuhr" right eventually in one of these threads. I just know it. :p:

I forgot to mention that Hockey Outsider couldn't take part in this poll but he sent me a pm and he is voting for Durnan. So whatever Durnan finishes with I will have to add one more vote to his total.

Personally I have a big problem with non-NHL goalies being included in this poll. There really is very little basis of comparison and invariably, some great European goalies like the mid 70's Czech goalies will get ignored because they never got the press Tretiak got in the west.

Good point. Jiri Holecek was named the top goalie at the World Championships more times than Tretiak. That tournament was considered the most important one in Europe.

Only marginally different than the bias against early and pre-NHLers like Benedict.
