Oh my god... the "n"s are thinking for themselves now.

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Still a crock that Mason and Bishop are on there and Bernier isn't.

Rask is #2.

 

[RP-29]

I say we throw Quick and Rask on the Oilers for a few games each and see who best survives the onslaught.

 

[Darkstone42]

The last option...

LMAFO

Beat me to it. I would take Bernier over half the stiffs on that list. Maybe all of them.

 

[Sportsguy9695]

quick

 

[dash]

Well, I had voted Rask number 1 earlier, so he'd better land the No. 2 spot.

 

[Harry Crack]

quick

If i was starting a Team i would take Quick over HL also.

I'm surprised Quick didn't get #1. He carried the Kings to the Cup the first time. The Second Cup run was almost as spectacular.

.911 SV% in the last playoff run. The league-wide SV% in the NHL in 2013-2014? .911.

Spectacular.

I've stated this before, but I'm going to throw it up again.

33 goalies played 50+ games over the last two seasons. 25 of them posted a better SV% than Jonathan Quick.

Either SV% is a completely meaningless statistic, or he's not the 2nd best goalie in the NHL. I just think that the first argument is a lot tougher one to make than the second one.

Ditto

Aren't you the same fans that ranted how great Reimer was 2 seasons ago

My issue with Quick is the same as my issue with Hasek. I am trying to teach young goalies technique and they see those tasered octopi having success and they develop really poor habits.

He wins, and that's great for him. But I wouldn't classify him as exceptionally good at the art of goaltending.

Plus he kick goalposts off on purpose.

The big difference though is that Hasek stopped the puck a hell of a lot doing things his way, while Quick doesn't.

Goalie trivia - in the past two seasons, Jonathan Quick has finished in the top 20 in save percentage how many times?

The B's goalies have led the league in Save % 4 of the last 5 seasons I believe. They allow a lot of shots from the wall cause they collapse down. This is Julien's system that helps do this

Rask is #2.

Mason I agree. Bishop I'd take over Bernier
