Vasilevsky has had back to back 40 win seasons. Reguardless of how good his team is he is still part of what makes it so good.
Price has carried a team that had 71 pts, 4th last in the league to almost making a playoff spot.
BOB is constantly in the talks for the vezina, puts up great stats
Fleury has taken the VGK to the playoffs in back to back years. They had no business even coming close in the debut season and he carried them to the final
Binnington just took the last place team in the league to the finals victory. You can say its luck all you want but after 50 games of dominance it stops being luck
Lehner just led the NHL in SV% and GA AVG
Rask put the bruins on his back and carried them to the final
Anderson is the only bit of defense the leafs have
Holtby consistently plays 60 games and is a corner stone in net for the caps
Gibson has also played about 60 games his past two seasons and is one of the few bright spots on a bad Anaheim team.
Matt Murray has yet to play more then 50 games. Is constantly injured. And even though has his name on the cup twice. Has played a full playoffs once, and the one time he played a full playoffs he only played 13 games in the regular season. He is not reliable because he is always injured.
Wins are a horrible way to evaluate goalies.
Montreal is actually good defensively with the likes of Weber, Petry, Kotkaniemi, and as I said, Price's underlying numbers are not great, Murray's are better.
I never said anything about Bobrovsky, I think he's the 4th best goalie in the league.
As I said before, Fleury played/plays behind a very good defensive team, his GSAA and HDSV are very poor.
Binnington's sample size is still very small, he could very well be the next Hammond, he still hasn't played a full year and again, he was playing behind a d-group led by Parayko and Pietrangelo.
Lehner did have a good year, but it could very well be an outlier, I highly doubt he has a season of that magnitude with Chicago who are way worse than the Isles defensively.
Rask plays behind one of the best defensive teams in the league, a 17 game stretch doesn't change that. Murray was better in the regular season.
Andersen is a top 3 goalie in the league, no arguments there.
Holtby was really good about 1.5 years ago, but Murray is even catching up to him as Murray posted better GSAA and HDSV.
Gibson is the best goalie in the league, I'm not going to argue about him.
It's true that Murray gets hurt a bit too much, but when he's healthy, he's a top 10 goalie in the league.
