First thought: not ready for any of the new guys top four. Also still not ready for Quick, but he probably goes in before I'm ready for him anyway.

Sergei Bobrovsky - I mean, if the playoffs aren't a huge, huge deal to you, then pair him as close as you can to Esposito. He's a weird one. He's not as technically poor as Espo, but he's a goalie who really wears his mental weakness as a scarlet letter. High highs, very low lows.
Alec Connell - I threw him on as the very last name on my list because he's the all time leader in GAA or whatever. He's more trivia question than substance from everything I've read. He was the player that I did a deep dive on in the 2012 project, and came up surprisingly empty-handed in terms of praise. I can't imagine what he's doing here right now.
Marc-Andre Fleury - Certainly a better bet than Barrasso. Fleury had his high highs and low lows period. Late career, he settled in to being a more reliable, less reflexive goalie and he wore that well. He didn't play for defensive teams very much during his long career...but as a player that developed under the old rules (where he played for basically an expansion team to start, with no full-time goalie coach at 18 years old), then made an impact in the new world, was dealt some tough hands during DPE 2.0 (and then vengefully dealt those bad hands back to his own team at times), and then in the new and improved new-nuNHL he became a regular in the Vezina conversation...he's an interesting one. Definitely someone I'd have over Barrasso and Bobrovsky for that matter. But he'll be a tough one to place in general...happy to see him available though.
Eddie Giacomin - I had a hunch that the film was going to be kind to him and that I'd pump his tires as a result...wrong. He's basically Esposito and Vachon. He tried to two pad stack and slide basically every shot, so it's fun to watch...but like we saw with Espo, the guys that throw themselves all over the floor generally don't win, and they generally don't have later career success. Well, here ya go again...I had Giacomin and Esposito back to back on my prelim list...deep in the 60's.

The HHOF officially recognizes 9 dynasties.
50s Habs - Plante (3rd)
50s Red Wings - Sawchuk (4th) and Lumley (29th)
70s Habs - Dryden (8th)
60s Leafs - Bower (16th) and Sawchuk (4th)
20s Sens - Benedict (18th)
40s Leafs - Broda (20th)
80s Islanders - Smith (27th)
80s Oilers - Fuhr (31st)
The only one left is the 60s Habs (Vachon and Worsley).
After the top 4 (where the teams are incredibly stacked AND have 10/10 goaltending), it's pretty much a list of how much a team needed their goalies to be elite to win. Smith was only needed to be great on the last two, Fuhr really only needed to be great in 1987.
For the 60s Habs, they're the only dynasty where goaltending is a noted weakness.
Just an interesting look at it.
