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 ’25 | Goalie | Team | Rating | Mar ’25 | Tier |
| 1 | Andrei Vasilevskiy | TBL | 94.0 | 1 | 0 |
| 2 | Igor Shesterkin | NYR | 88.9 | 2 | 0 |
| 3 | Connor Hellebuyck | WPG | 79.2 | 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 | Jake Oettinger | DAL | 89.8 | 4 | 1 |
| 5 | Logan Thompson | WAS | 81.8 | 7 | 1 |
| 6 | Filip Gustavsson | MIN | 79.7 | 5 | 1 |
| 7 | Karel Vejmelka | UTA | 77.0 | 12 | 1 |
| 8 | Ilya Sorokin | NYI | 76.9 | 6 | 1 |
| 9 | Lukas Dostal | ANA | 68.8 | 8 | 1 |
| 10 | Mackenzie Blackwood | COL | 65.8 | 10 | 1 |
| 11 | Spencer Knight | CHI | 59.9 | 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.
| 12 | Jeremy Swayman | BOS | 78.9 | 11 | 2 |
| 13 | Dan Vladar | PHI | 77.3 | 24 | 2 |
| 14 | Brandon Bussi | CAR | 74.2 | 13 | 2 |

| 16 | Dustin Wolf | CGY | 64.8 | 15 | 2 |
| 17 | Juuse Saros | NSH | 59.3 | 17 | 2 |
| 18 | Linus Ullmark | OTT | 59.3 | 19 | 2 |
| 19 | Yaroslav Askarov | SJS | 56.7 | 18 | 2 |
| 20 | Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen | BUF | 53.6 | 30 | 2 |
| 21 | John Gibson | DET | 41.7 | 22 | 2 |
Tier 3
A mix of 1B goalies with upside, fading veterans, or top prospects who are very close to making the jump.
| 22 | Jet Greaves | CBJ | 64.3 | 26 | 3 |
| 23 | Scott Wedgewood | COL | 63.6 | 25 | 3 |

| 37 | Daniil Tarasov | FLA | 39.0 | 38 | 3 |
| 38 | Darcy Kuemper | LAK | 38.2 | 23 | 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.
