All this goalie talk has me wondering, where the heck is Tyler Plante?

Ranking him out of the top five goalies is a joke, especially behind guys like Frazee. I'm not all that sold on Pavelec either. He had a great U18's and was the best goalie there, but I question his fundamentals. He was pretty eratic and his style reminded me more of Martin Prusek than Tomas Vokoun.

I don't consider this a very good year for goaltenders at all. Generally speaking even Rask and Price aren't as good as the top goalies taken in the last few drafts. They aren't Luongo/Fleury/Lehtonen/Dipietro quality by any means.

My top 5 goalies are:

1 - Rask
2 - Price

I rank Price very close to Rask, both should be out of top 10 but probably before 20. After these two, all goalies should be very late 1st rounders or lower.

3 - Plante
4 - Vincent
5 - Pavelec
