Please note that the full Top 100 goalies are hosted on Goalie Post. Simply visit Goalie Post here, and click the ‘Rankings’ tab on the bottom.
Here are the first three tiers (for Tiers 4 and 5, visit Goalie Post).
Click on any player name to be taken to his fantasy hockey profile, and remember that players within the same tier should be considered equal value.
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.
| Jan | Goalie | Team | Rating | Dec | Tier |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Connor Hellebuyck | WPG | 106.5 | 1 | 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.
| 2 | Jake Oettinger | DAL | 89.1 | 3 | 1 |
| 3 | Igor Shesterkin | NYR | 85.3 | 2 | 1 |
| 4 | Andrei Vasilevskiy | TBL | 85.1 | 5 | 1 |
| 5 | Filip Gustavsson | MIN | 82.1 | 6 | 1 |
| 6 | Ilya Sorokin | NYI | 81.8 | 4 | 1 |
| 7 | Stuart Skinner | EDM | 77.6 | 7 | 1 |
| 8 | Jacob Markstrom | NJD | 73.4 | 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.
| 9 | Dustin Wolf | CGY | 73.6 | 11 | 2 |
| 10 | Joey Daccord | SEA | 68.2 | 10 | 2 |
| 11 | Logan Thompson | WAS | 67.3 | 14 | 2 |
| 12 | Juuse Saros | NSH | 66.5 | 8 | 2 |
| 13 | Sergei Bobrovsky | FLA | 66.1 | 13 | 2 |
| 14 | Pyotr Kochetkov | CAR | 63.3 | 15 | 2 |
| 15 | Jeremy Swayman | BOS | 62.5 | 12 | 2 |
| 16 | Adin Hill | VGK | 61.1 | 16 | 2 |
| 17 | Mackenzie Blackwood | COL | 60.9 | 36 | 2 |
| 18 | Thatcher Demko | VAN | 55.3 | 17 | 2 |
| 19 | Linus Ullmark | OTT | 52.2 | 18 | 2 |
Tier 3
A mix of 1B goalies with upside, fading veterans, or top prospects who are very close to making the jump.
| 20 | Lukas Dostal | ANA | 55.9 | 20 | 3 |
| 21 | Jordan Binnington | STL | 53.9 | 21 | 3 |
| 22 | Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen | BUF | 52.7 | 19 | 3 |
| 23 | Darcy Kuemper | LAK | 52.6 | 27 | 3 |
| 24 | Sam Montembeault | MON | 52.4 | 24 | 3 |
| 25 | Yaroslav Askarov | SJS | 50.9 | 35 | 3 |
| 26 | Samuel Ersson | PHI | 48.2 | 23 | 3 |
| 27 | John Gibson | ANA | 47.6 | 30 | 3 |
| 28 | Anthony Stolarz | TOR | 47.2 | 22 | 3 |
| 29 | Frederik Andersen | CAR | 46.4 | 25 | 3 |
