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.


AVERAGE

Lundqvist

Brodeur

Dipietro

Miller

Niittymaki

Luongo

Kiprusoff

Fleury

Vokoun

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.
