Not sure if anyone watched this or cares, but here they are:
1. Carey Price, MTL
2. Braden Holtby, WAS
3. Sergei Bobrovsky, CBJ
4. Matt Murray, PIT
5. Devan Dubnyk, MIN
6. Jonathan Quick, LAK
7. Cam Talbot, EDM
8. Henrik Lundqvist, NYR
9. Martin Jones, SJS
10. Pekka Rinne, NSH
only two (I believe), Murray and Quick, have won Stanley Cups.
Some say Corey Crawford was snubbed. Not sure who you replace for him, Rinne? I like Rinne, but some of you other hockey fans, don't. And he (Rinne) was brutal in some of those SCF games, but incredible in other playoff games.
I think Talbot. Good goalie, but I'd take both Crawford and Schneider over him. He's 30 years old and his lowest GAA as a starter in his career is 2.39. Nothing special at all.

As long as it's not Rask people want to add.
That oompa loompa is not on my top 10.
As big a reason as any why the Kings have been consistent regular season underachievers even as they've enjoyed occasional playoff success.

Why not? Rask has better career numbers than most. He obviously spent time behind an elite defense. But why isn't he in the conversation?
Quick is very overrated, even though he put together an absolutely legendary postseason in 2012
Let's see how Hank bounces back this season with an improved defense in front of him. I think it's a bit reactionary to put him behind some of those guys who have only put together 1-2 seasons of top 10 caliber play
Well you know my thoughts on Habs Rangers from last year, I believe Hank outplayed Price and that was the difference in the series.
Some of those guys have never even won a playoff series like Bobrovsky (I believe) or someone like Dubnyk who is 30 and has won one playoff series.
on the other hand, sigh, I think, I fear, Henrik's standing there is reflective in good part on past accomplishments and not his current abilities

PJ with some more Boston hate!!!

LOL, I coach my daughters team and our goalie is #40. Drives me nuts, but they're all Bruins fans.
I have said many times Tim Thomas in 2011 was among the greatest goalie playoff performances I have seen. and Thomas had some ridiculous regular seasons as a severe late bloomer.
Tuukka, meh. Good not great, always seems to let in the backbreaking goal that you think he should save.
Though when people talk about the defense in front of a goalie it's borderline criminal what they've done to him the past few years.
