Top 100 Keeper League Goaltenders – May 2021

Here are the Top 100 goaltenders to own in your points-only dynasty leagues – May edition!
Go by Tiers. Do not bother quibbling over the Ranking spot (Dobber’s note: People are already quibbling over ranking spot – a goalie isn’t 25th… he’s Tier 3, meaning he is the same as other goalies in Tier 3). Goalies in the same tier offer value in different areas (immediacy, or long-term upside, or reliable health/production but lower upside, etc.), but overall they are about equal for dynasty league trade value.
Playoffs have no impact on these rankings, other than a goalie’s usage and how that impacts how often he’ll be used next year (i.e. Jarry is still a strong bet to win most of Pittsburgh’s games over the next three years). These rankings are taking a rough look at next season and beyond.
