Best NHL goalies 2-3 years from now?

[Number 57]

With the way the goalies are currently trending how to you see the landscape being a couple of years from now? Which of the old guards will falter (Fleury, Lundqvist, Rinne, Price, Quick, Luongo, Bishop etc) and which of the kids will shine through (Hart, Demko, Vasilevski, Samsonov, Gibson, Husso, Nedeljkovic, Dell etc)?

My list:

1. Gibson
2. Vasilevski
3. Hellebuyck
4. Price
5. Bobrovsky
6. Talbot
7. Hart
8. Murray
9. Jones
10. Saros
11. Grubauer
12. Raanta
13. Holtby
14. Quick
15. Schneider

I’m gonna go ahead and say that at least three of the top-5 are “old guard” guys.

 

[Critical13]

Damn, Andersen doesn't even make the top 15 even though he's younger and already better than some of those guys!

2 years seems so long for predicting goalies. I don't think Gibson is top 5, or Grub 11, and I don't think Helle and Vas are both top 3. I think Vas, but I am weary of Helle.

 

[Jtown]

bob will hover between 1-2-3 for the next 5 years atleast.

Jack Campbell.

If Husso somehow makes that list my god would it make life a lot easier. The rollercoaster rides of Jake Allen are too much for me to handle for 3 more years.

 

[Laineux]

Juuse Saros will emerge as the best goaltender in the world once they realize to stop playing Rinne in Nashville.

Throw a dart, blindfolded, at a spinning board with names.

That's how consistently goalies stay at the top. It will be a different every year.

 

[DudeWhereIsMakar]

All homerness aside, I truly think Hellebuyck will be the best goaltender in the league.

Gibson has easily been top-5 this year and has improved (significantly) every season. There's no reason to not have him right with Helle/Vasi.

[PensandCaps]

Murray
Vasi
Saros
Gibson

 

[Not So Mighty]

I hope you're right but Gibson is made of glass. I'm no kinesiologist but I fear he'll never live up to his actual potential due to wear and tear. He was our MVP last year though, which is saying something because Getzlaf was having a hell of a season.

 

[Silky mitts]

I think Vasilevskiy will be #1 and Ilya Samsonov top 7

 

[Hivemind]

I think Vasilevskiy will be #1 and Ilya Samsonov top 7

That's very specific

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Vasilevskiy will likely be the best.

Gibson, Saros, Price, Holtby, Bobrovskiy, Hellebuyck could all be up there. Maybe Shestyorkin, Sorokin, Samsonov, although it might be too early for them to be among the best in the NHL.

 

[EdJovanovski]

Igor Shestyorkin

 

[Honour Over Glory]

Juuse Saros will emerge as the best goaltender in the world once they realize to stop playing Rinne in Nashville.

Is this when the league implements a "you can't shoot above 3ft" rule which has goalies his size excel as a starter?

 

[islesfan186]

Ilya Sorokin








Hopefully lol

 

[LamorielloAndSon]

Ilya sorokin

 

[Jyrki Lumme]

My team's young, unproven goalie AINEC

 

[steveat]

I don't think Grubauer will sniff the top 50

 

[Vancouver Canucks]

Vasilevskiy should be #1.
