Mackenzie Blackwood - Will he end up a top-10 goaltender (not all-time)?

[Poppy Whoa Sonnet]

I can't think of 10 goalies I'd rather have than Blackwood in NJ today.

 

[TorontoMedia]

He is better than Carter Hart. i don't want to say much better because obviously Hart is a great young goalie.'

But right now, there isn't a debate. MBW is a brick wall. best goalie in the division as of now.

 

[Scorcho]

He won 2 series Hart also played great in the round-robin tournament!

They won 1 playoff series. as well as the round robin.

Splitting hairs, but the round robin win does not count as a playoff series win

 

[Minnewildsota]

He will be a top 10 goalie on the Devil's this year, for sure.

 

[dougiebrown]

Devils' Mackenzie Blackwood is on the Path to Greatness

Flyers defeat Bruins in opening game of Qualifiers round-robin

The NHL said they counted as playoff wins!

the games, but not the series. which is odd i guess, but whatever

Is he generational yet

I could ask your side, the same thing your side said, Mackenzie is better than Carter Hart, Who is a box-office player, his jersey sells out his ceiling is Martin Brodeur, and Hart has more hardware than Mackenzie.

Carter Hart Had A Phenomenal Season For The Flyers, It Was So Good It Was Comparable To A Goaltending Legend In Martin Brodeur In His First Full Season In The NHL

You think Hart's ceiling is one of the greatest goalies of all time who owns nearly every single goaltending record?

christ..

 

[Arthur Morgan]

too early to say anything all time. but every player has a chance at placing top 10.

I hope this is sarcasm. There isn't a goalie in the NHL today that has a ceiling of Martin Brodeur.

How so? I thought everyone and their dog was generational nowadays.

You have to think Mack Black gets a few vezina votes if the devils make the playoffs, no?

If he keeps up this pace, he should get more than a few.

I don't think Ronald Reagan was a goalie, though.

 

[Top Shelf Wrister]

I don't think Ronald Reagan was a goalie, though.

Obviously, it’s a reference to the period of time when they did have a great goalie.

 

[Sheros expletives]

Probably the best goalie in the world right now.

Obvious jinx post is obvious. Nah but he hasn't been the same after coming back from the big Rona.

 

[Jason MacIsaac]

Well, Blackwood was one of the few to admit that Covid affected his lungs quite a bit. This maybe a blessing in disguise, NJ may have been picking in the mid teens if he was in Pre-Covid form.

It counts as a playoff win, not a series win which you seem to be trying to weigh the same as.

 

[Lainehasaweirdface]

I'd say he already is. I think starting last season, moving forward he will be in the top 10 echelon of starting goalies for at least 10 years. Kid's an absolute stud in the crease. Technically, positionally, athletically he's the full package. He was a 2nd round pick in the 2nd best draft of all time so it's not like he came out of nowhere. He 100% has the potential and ability to be a top 5 goalie in the world consistently.
