The volatility of the position has dissuaded some NHL GMs from spending exorbitant amounts on a goalie. Still, it's the most important position on the ice and has the strongest correlation to winning. The best goalie contracts around the league ⤵️
It’s a comprehensive breakdown, but doesn’t include goaltenders. Goaltending is the most important position on the ice and has the strongest correlation to winning, but is also the most difficult to project based on past metrics. Traditional goalie stats are heavily influenced by their environment, which sometimes makes judgment of individual play challenging.
In 2021-22, Oettinger grabbed the starting role in Dallas but was still part of a rotation with Braden Holtby, starting 46 games. This past season he started 61 times, finished with the fourth-most minutes of ice time in the NHL, and was brilliant throughout. The 24-year-old still has two years left on his contract with a cap hit of only $4 million, which makes him the 23rd highest-paid goalie in the league.
His excellent play behind a less-than-stellar team only strengthens the confidence that he’ll outplay his reasonable cap hit of only $5 million over the next two seasons. Saros signed the four-year deal in August 2021 and has finished top four in Vezina voting each year since. At only 28, the Finn has shown no signs of slowing down. With precise edgework and elite athleticism, Saros is proving a sub-6-foot goalie can not only make it in today’s NHL but can thrive with the right skills.
