That explains why only 2 goalies have ever gone 1st overall ever in the draft. I should trade Alexander Ovechkin for Lehtonen b/c as you all suggest goalies are better....

Goalies are much harder to project at 18 than forwards. Defenseman also, which is why forwards tend to be taken 1st overall. In this comparison though, we are not talking about 18 year olds.

You may also have noticed that goalies are being taken 1st overall more often though.

we better just rename the Vezina trophy, the Lehtonen trophy, and make sure it's awarded to him every year now. While we're at it, let's just hand Atlanta the Stanley Cup because no one can beat Lehtonen. He's the best player ever! he's going to be so awesome! OMG! LOL!

and so on and so on
