In retrospect, how good of a goalie was Steve Mason?

[Bjornar Moxnes]

Steve Mason started out his career very strong with a good albeit not great rookie season. Then he struggled mightily until he was traded to the Flyers where he actually posted good numbers until his final season. He plays one last season with the jets in a backup role in which he was just okay.

How'd you rate his career?

He was a good or potentially elite goalie who was better than the teams he played for.

 

[Shark Finn]

You said it - good.

Did not realize until I looked it up that he was drafted 69th overall. Nice.

I forgot how good his overall numbers were for his career. I kinda have a vague memory of him letting in bad goals though.

 

[Albatros]

Mostly good, but he had some inexcusably weak seasons if you look at what his less-than-stellar backups could do.

 

[Michael Farkas]

Very flawed, blocking style. Mostly a product of DPE 2.0. Most of the goalie population was wiped out by the rule changes from 2005. Only the super adaptable and elites survived, so there was a wave of gimmicky guys, journeymen, fly-by-night types during this time...

Was bad on a bad team CLB, and good on a good team PHI

 

[PullHard]

Pretty good goalie. He played in a pretty low scoring era compared to current goalies.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

He was 'ight.

 

[JaegerDice]

Good, not great.

 

[Hisch13r]

He was a goalie who was either very good or very bad. Rarely did he even land in the middle.
