not sure about that. A much higher proportion of goalies are in vs skaters, so not sure how one could conclude it’s harder for themI think so. The bar is unfairly high for goalies, but getting slightly more reasonable lately.
I think he has a strong case once he wins his 2nd Vezina this year. 2 major awards (plus Jennings) and his stats should be enough
You don't think that a 30 year old Helly won't get another 178 more wins?Nope
Helle 276 wins
Curtis Joseph 454 wins
Joseph is not inYou don't think that a 30 year old Helly won't get another 178 more wins?
Curtis Joseph never was as good as Hellebuyck, so why use him?Joseph is not in
CuJo never won a Vezina.Joseph is not in
Hextall won a Smythe and a Vezina and didn't get in.What’s with all these replies he needs a “few more Vezinas” and some people add AND a cup AND a Smythe? How many goalies of the last couple decades even have more than 1 Vézina OR a Smythe? You’d have to think a goalie Smythe is a lock for HHOF. As well as a single Vézina while being a top tier goalie in this league… for goodness sakes…
Not saying HE IS a lock, but come on… a COUPLE Vezinas, AND a Smythe and what else?
Well, NHL pays a salary for regular season, while playoffs are slave labor. So considering the job he's paid for, playoffs don't really matter.A guy who is bad in the playoffs is just not hockey's best goalie.

I feel like Thomas would be in, if he had better standing with league brass.Pair of Vezinas will probably get him in eventually.
I know Thomas has two and isn't in, but Helle has already played 80 more career games. If he can stay healthy and even moderately productive, he'll go.

I remember he pretty much gave us the series in 2021. Price stood on his head for four games and nitwits around here were saying that Hellebuyck was a better goaltender.Hellebuyck has a lot to prove in the playoffs. His numbers in the playoffs are not great for a goalie of his calibre. 2nd highest paid goalie in the NHL and he needs to start playing like one. Great regular season goalie though.
