Toews 1OA is a very hot take, when Sawchuk's the greatest goalie of the pre-mask era.

Sawchuk, Clarke, Bathgate would be my top three.

Bill Ranford, Ken Wregget and Joe Daley (moreso for his WHA career) were the first names that popped into my head that should be here over some of the others.

I appreciate your opinion. My reasoning is not flawless, and likely leans on a recenecy effect. Toews is way up the list based on his success in the NHL and internationally. He'd have a pile more Selkes on the shelf if a Mr Patrice Bergeron was not as good as he was.

Toews only finished 2nd to Bergeron for the Selke once (his other 2nd place finish was 10-11, when Kesler destroyed the field. I've always felt he was overrated, but to each their own. Ron Hextall and Leach would round out my top five. You may have a recency bias, but mine is clearly goalies.

Yup. I'm told he used to bully my dad's best friend's son, as a kid.
