Top 100 Keeper League Goaltenders – January 2026

Here are the 100 top NHL goalies to own in your points-only dynasty leagues – January edition!
But first, the 18th annual Midseason Fantasy Hockey Guide will be out in just under ONE week! Look for it January 8, 2026 and you can pre-order it here (unless you bought the Ultimate Fantasy Pack or have the Gold/Platinum subscription – in which case you will already get it!)
As always – players ranked within +/-5.0 ratings of each other should be considered equal. Click any name to be taken to his Frozen Tools fantasy profile page for more details. I customized those player pages to give me all the information I need to evaluate a player to draft, acquire or trade. Now I don’t click five different sites to gather all the info – it’s all there in one shot. Bookmark it!
