We're going to put through the top 6 to start.

Also, it turned out that the extra week of discussion proved neither redundant nor unnecessary, as quite a few people changed their votes.

I had Roy #1 and Hasek #2 - but overall have no issues with this ranking.

To me at his best Hasek is #1 - but I think Roy's career, especially playoffs, makes him "greater" - but it's so close.

It's interresting that in both the 2012 goalie project and 2018 top 100 list we had Roy above Hasek as the #1 goalie - so this will be the first time since the 2008 top 100 list that this forum ranks Hasek above.

I'd love to hear the rationale for the voter who had Roy #6, and Plante #7. Those seem surprising to me.

I don't like Roy 6th at all and I don't like Hasek 5th that much either.

 

[Dennis Bonvie]

Sawchuk the only one to run the gamut of rankings.

I ended up with Plante at 1...surprised I was alone there. I thought there'd be a couple of those.

I'm also the Hasek 5th place vote. He got to the 3 or 4 area at a point, but ultimately, I put Sawchuk over him at the end.

Nice to see Brodeur overtake Hall.

Roy at 6, Hall at 3, and Dryden at 3 all interest me. In any case, the result matched my ballot so I guess I'm mr. Boring.

I figured you were the Hasek at 5. Plante at 1 makes sense and is something I almost did.

I get where you're coming from even if that's not how I voted.

I like when people vote against the grain as long as it's defended.

I remember the chaos of the Gretzky at 7 vote. Weird, but was defended logically.

Fair enough -- it's not like you weren't vocal, I just didn't expect it would result in 5th.

For the record, my own controversial contribution was Sawchuk 8th. Lots of contemporary appreciation, but A LOT of it reads like whoever calling Carey Price the best goaltender in the world in 2019.

If it makes you feel any better, you're not the only one.

Birth years went 1965, 1965, 1929, 1929, 1972, 1931. Feels.... lazy? convenient?

I'm convinced that #1 probably changed in the second week. I honestly thought Roy had it, but as the votes started coming in, it became obvious that something had changed.

 

[Sentinel]

I did not vote but, other than Tretiak being too low, I am generally OK with these results.

I voted at midnight because I too was wrestling with Hasek vs Sawchuk.

My lone wolf 8th place vote was for Glenn Hall. As a regular season goalie he was good, but he doesn't create a lot of separation from Sawchuk and Plante with his margins of 1st AS wins, or from Denis DeJordy behind the same solid defensive team.

I had him behind Tretiak and Dryden because Playoff Hall is the one in the group who seems most unlikely to steal you a tough playoff game on the road.
