Frozenrubber over on the HFBoards pointed out this really cool link..
I definitely suggest you visit the site and take a look, but for the really lazy people, here is the analysis on the teams you might be interested in. Again, I did NONE of this work, all credit goes to the site linked above, and yes, I have got permission from the site owner to hotlink these images here.

In terms of these goalies relevant to us Ranger fans, here is where Henrik Stacks up.
-
High Stick Side: 2nd
High Glove Side: 4th
Low Stick Side: T- 2nd
Low Glove Side: 5th
5-Hole: 2nd
Not too shabby considering A)The defense playing in front of him and B)The quality of goalies I elected to narrow it down to.
The site has a few goalies with far too small a sample size to really compare Henrik to. For example Thibault has a ridiculous .950 low stick side save percentage, and yet Henrik has made 5 times as many saves to that zone. Give Thibault 5 times the amount of shots there, and I guarantee those numbers drop substantially.
Thomas Pocks’ review will come tomorrow.
