The NHL Community has been busy with rankings this offseason. They’ve already put out their prime 10 centres and defencemen, together with their prime 20 wingers, all of which stirred up loads of debate. Now, their prime 10 goalies checklist is doing the identical, particularly with Connor Hellebuyck sitting on the prime.
Wanting on the common season, there’s actually little doubt Hellebuyck belongs at No. 1. Nonetheless, lots of people convey up the playoffs and argue he shouldn’t maintain that spot, which I believe is legitimate to a sure extent. However the best way he bounced again in Spherical 2 towards Dallas, alongside together with his additional time performances in Sport 7 towards the St. Louis Blues, confirmed he simply wanted a confidence enhance to return to his true Vezina/Hart caliber type.
The highest 3 total look fairly correct. You would flip Andrei Vasilevskiy and Igor Shesterkin for the No. 2 and three spots, however each are positioned pretty. Vasilevskiy continues to show he’s top-of-the-line within the league, whereas Shesterkin, regardless of a so-called down yr, nonetheless did all he may behind a struggling Rangers staff. It’s much like Juuse Saros in Nashville: an impressive goalie carrying a weak Predators roster. For me, Saros continues to be with out query a top-10 goalie.

Connor Hellebuyck (WPG)
Andrei Vasilevskiy (TBL)
