[M2Beezy]

Objectively, this is Thatcher Demko

 

[EdJovanovski]

Shesterkin AINEC

Looking at those names, if Fredrik Andersen is a Top 10 NHL goalie this league has gone in the freaking toilet in terms of reliable goaltending.

 

[wetcoast]

Voted for Saros as goalie people ( I have a hard time evaluating them honestly) tell me that he mayb the best goalie in the league.

The bigger question for me is when do we see a goalie from NA on this list?

6th maybe?

 

[Dion TheFluff]

Shesterkin
add Kuemper

Andersen WTF?​

7 of his 9 career seasons, he's posted a .914 or better. He's coming off a .922 winning the Jennings and finishing 3rd in AS voting/4th in Vezina voting. In the current NHL where careers swing on a pendulum, that's high-end consistency and pretty easily a top-10 goalie.

Anyway, the answer to this poll is Shesterkin until proven otherwise (see: career pendulum swings)

 

[Connor McConnor]

Shesterkin
Saros
Demko/Hele

You've certainly seen him more recently than I have, but I've seen him struggle in a lot of important games and for that reason I personally don't trust him in the slightest.

Yea I'm confused at all the Andersen hate. He just finished 4th in Vezina voting and has been a pretty consistent starter his entire career.

 

[Machinehead]

Will be an easy one here. Kid's an animal.

Might get crap for this but when the time is appropriate to make an add, Fleury really isn't a bad choice.

I think the question with Andersen has always been his play in big games/moments. I don’t know if that’s fair or not but I think it’s what’s hurt his reputation over the years. He also was just not good in general his last year with the Leafs, though obviously rebounded last year

 

[Spilot23]

Voted other Georgiev.

 

[The Gr8 Dane]

Do goalies all just suck now or is scoring just up feels like the end of an era

 

[Lavar Ball]

I think it's safe to say this one is a wrap

I feel like goaltending will become better again soon with the best goalies still being young and guys like Wallstedt, Oettinger, Knight, Swayman, Askarov, Wolf, Levi and maybe Cossa(?) showing a lot of potential.

A lot of the elite goalies like Lundqvist, Bishop, Rask, Rinne and probably Price disappeared recently which left us with a gap.

 

[Namikaze Minato]

Voted other Georgiev.

Voted other Georgiev.
