Top 5 NHL Goalies

This is turning into the Year of the Goalie. Thirteen of them had save percentages of .920 or better heading into Sunday’s action. And you won’t find names like Roberto Luongo, Martin Brodeur and Dominik Hasek anywhere near that list.
Here’s who you will find in the Top 5:
Pascal Leclaire (.953): Five shutouts in nine games suggest the Columbus prospect has finally arrived.
Dan Ellis (.952): Nashville honked one by letting Tomas Vokoun go to Florida, but Ellis saved the day (for now) with four straight wins, including two shutouts.
Tim Thomas (.946): Taking full advantage of Manny Fernandez’ knee injury. Getting the job done for the Bruins this season.
Martin Biron (.940): Cast aside in Buffalo, but leading the Flyers’ surge back to respectability.
Henrik Lundqvist (.939): Don’t blame him for the ’ slow start. Three shutouts this season and only one shootout goal allowed in six attempts.
