Here are the top 100 goaltenders to own in your points-only dynasty leagues – April edition!

As always, since goaltenders are so finicky (top fantasy owns one day, six months later nobody touches them with a 10-foot pole, but six months after that they are top owns again), go by the tiering system. Two goalies in the same tier have equal value in this format. Do not look beyond three years ahead, because a goalie (ahem, Phoenix Copley) with no value could suddenly have value, all in a matter of weeks.

The 17^th annual DobberHockey Interactive Playoff Draft List is now available for download. Injury notes updated. You can run multiple scenarios and sort in multiple ways. I generally run two scenarios and head into the draft with both. Then I run with whichever list I get a jump on the top players early and by the third round I discard the other list. Besides running your own scenario, I also include my own picks. You can pick up the (winning) Draft List – here!

Tier 0

The only goalies who are completely safe owns, and elite owns. They’ll give you plenty of wins, fewer losses, and good peripheral stats. They generally don’t get hurt, and are fairly consistent. Yes, this Tier is a small one.

Apr 23	Goalie	Team	Rating	Mar 23	Tier
1	Connor Hellebuyck	WPG	95.2	1	0
2	Andrei Vasilevskiy	TBL	92.9	2	0
3	Igor Shesterkin	NYR	92.8	3	0

Tier 1

Good goaltenders who are the clear starters for their team. They are generally going to be safe picks, they should give you solid stats, and each one has upside for greatness in the coming seasons.

4	Ilya Sorokin	NYI	86.1	4	1
5	Alexandar Georgiev	COL	85.3	5	1
6	Jake Oettinger	DAL	82.5	6	1
7	Juuse Saros	NSH	79.9	8	1
8	Vitek Vanecek	NJD	75.5	10	1
9	Linus Ullmark	BOS	74.9	7	1
10	Tristan Jarry	PIT	74.8	9	1

Tier 2

Either clear-cut number one goalies, but on weaker teams. Or they are in a shared situation right now, but with tremendous upside in the future. Or they are on top teams but have a shaky track record of late. There is some risk here but also some upside.

11	Thatcher Demko	VAN	68.2	15	2
12	Ilya Samsonov	TOR	63.6	14	2
13	Sergei Bobrovsky	FLA	63.3	11	2
14	Stuart Skinner	EDM	59.8	20	2

Tier 3

A mix of 1B goalies with upside, fading veterans, or top prospects who are very close to making the jump.

15	Filip Gustavsson	MIN	70.3	16	3
16	Pyotr Kochetkov	CAR	66.4	31	3
17	Jacob Markstrom	CGY	63.7	23	3
18	Jordan Binnington	STL	61.8	17	3
19	Ville Husso	DET	60.1	13	3
20	Jeremy Swayman	BOS	58.9	19	3
21	Carter Hart	PHI	58.7	18	3
22	Frederik Andersen	CAR	58.3	12	3
23	Karel Vejmelka	ARI	58.1	22	3
24	Logan Thompson	VGK	57.8	21	3
25	John Gibson	ANA	52.8	27	3
26	Pheonix Copley	LAK	51.8	24	3
27	Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen	BUF	50.0	25	3
28	Joonas Korpisalo	LAK	49.1	26	3
29	Darcy Kuemper	WAS	47.0	28	3

Tier 4

The starting goalies on terrible teams, backup goalies on great teams, some very good prospects who are getting closer – and everything in between. With the right bounces, some of these goalies may become stars. Some will see their last career NHL game this season. Lots of risk here.
