I provided a valid argument:
Nope.
Nice try tho
Turco was also better than Price
Don't agree with that but he was still good

But the trapezoid does exist. And again, how many goaltenders were really making that much of a positive impact handling the puck? Where it should be part of the gameplan? As opposed to taking a much more safety first approach? There's a flow to a game with a team when they have good structure, that a goaltender coming out to play the puck is not a part of.Because their area of the ice is much smaller and they can turn a 5v5 into a 6v5. A defenseman has to track a forward until the puck is dumped and then beat that forward in a race to retrieve it. A goalie is always near the target area and can kill a forecheck before any danger begins. This is the whole reason why the trapezoid was added, because the defensive benefits of guys like Brodeur and Turco playing the puck in the corners greatly outweighed the risks.
Price is collecting dust (and fat checks). His puck handling skills were overrated. He enjoyed handling the puck more than he excelled at it.Since he's still technically under Contract, it's Carey Price, hands down

Shesterkin is already much better at it than Price used to be and, is if he keeps improving, will become one of the best of all times.
Helle shouldn't be allowed our of his crease.Since he's still technically under Contract, it's Carey Price, hands down
Second place would be Hellebuyck imo
No, I think they have PTSD from watching their teams' goaltenders mishandle the puck.People who yell at goalies to stay in the net or say they shouldn’t play the puck have a very poor understanding of the strategic side of hockey.
I believe goalies should not leave the goal to handle the puck whenever possible. So for me the best goalies at handling the puck are the ones who handle it the least. And when they do handle the puck, they keep things as simple as possible.
Bobrovsky can be pretty efficient at handling the puck, for the things I just mentioned.
I didn't say he was great. But he keeps it simple. Which is exactly the right way to handle that situation if you are Babrovsky, and handling the puck is not a strength. Some goalies don't know when to not try to do too much.Not sure I'd say Bob is an example of a great puckhandler. I think it's one of his deficiencies, personally. He makes questionable decisions and sometimes plays pucks he really, really should not play. Anthony Stolarz was much better at it this season on the same team.
Price was literally a goalieShesty is good, Price was litteraly a 6th defenseman
Shesty Will be lucky if His skills come close to Price's
I think that Shesty is one of the best right bien, but I'm not even sure I would put him at Mike Smith's Lebel, let alone Price's
This is sadly accurate lol.Shesterkin
After Fox he’s probably the best transition dman on the team
