He has to do a lot more
The greatest goalie ever won 6 vezina's, 2 harts, 2 Lindsay's and had the greatest none big 4, 7 year stretch ever
Vasilevsky needs atleast a 6/7 year stretch with 3 vezina and 2-3 top 5 hart places to get consideration for being generational
Not many consider Brodeaur or Roy generational players and they accomplished much more than Vasilevsky has at this point.
He needs 4-5 more seasons as being the best goalie or 2nd best to be generational
I came here just to say that. I still think his miraculous 5 game shutout streak is one of the records that may be tough to beat. And he was the backup to boot....crazy!Brian Boucher is not impressed.
Shestorkin I think will he best goalie post Lunqvuist/Luongo. Vasilevsky is elite and going to he extremely good for next half decade I just think a few younger goalies can be at his level or betterI’m talking generational in a literal sense. What goalie since Price was drafted in 2005 from the next 10 drafts has accomplished more or we expect to accomplish more? He was generational when drafted and has been generational since. If you think generation is instead about 15-20 years, I’m not sure he doesn’t register as the best of the generation after Lundqvist.

Wow seriously?Vasilevskiy is only 1 year older than Shesterkin.
At Shesterkin's current age, Vasilevskiy already had close to 200 games under his belt. What he has accomplished is incredibly rare for a goalie his age.
If Brodeur and Roy don't qualify then who does? Just Hasek?He has to do a lot more

Man he said generational goalie, not generational player. If you look at the current landscape of NHL's goaltending it's really not close. Vasilevski has the consistency that all other goalies lack. He's consistently the best or among the best. That's the definition of generational among his peers. Nobody out of active goalies has been able to sustain that level of play for that long of a period except for him. He's the best one since Lundqvist. Price should not be even mentioned with a word "generational" in the same sentence. One great and two pretty good years and the guy was made out to be a superstar he never was.He has to do a lot more

You can't possibly be serious? You really think that Lankinen is better then Vasilevsky after about 20 career games? Please tell me you're joking.Thats the numbers you should get when you play in Tampa! He is good thats for sure but there are few better like Gibson, Rask, Marc-Andre, Lankinen out there
I mean I'm not saying this is 100 % wrong. Playing in Tampa makes it easier for a goalie to have good numbers, no one should deny that. But are we really saying that a team in front of you means you should get 3 shutouts in a row and have a Sv% over .940? And to say Lankinen is better on top of that, lol.Thats the numbers you should get when you play in Tampa! He is good thats for sure but there are few better like Gibson, Rask, Marc-Andre, Lankinen out there
Wow seriously?
Edit: damn, you're right.
One of the things about Vasi is he became an NHL goalie at an oddly young age (for the norm). He was a backup at 20, full time starter at 22, and a Vezina finalist at 23.
Good a spot as any to make fun of ESPN hockey analyst/crew. To think in their pre season hockey awards picks, not a single one picked Vasy, a former winner, Stanley Cup champion and 2 time finalist to win Vezina. Thats out of 12 "analyst". NOT A SINGLE ONE. 3 of them picked Hart, LMFAO. Super informed, that group.
Not saying he wins it, but that's ridiculous.
Lmao, absolutely clueless.Thats the numbers you should get when you play in Tampa! He is good thats for sure but there are few better like Gibson, Rask, Marc-Andre, Lankinen out there
