text: Terry Sawchuk\n Roy is probably the best goalie of this era (Brodeur is right there with him). Sawchuk performed without a mask in the Original 6 (when every player was extremely talented) and set the bar for todays goalies to reach. While todays goalies have great numbers we need to remember that they play against teams that lack good scoring, have better defenders in front of them, better defensive systems and far bigger and better equipment.\n  Also Sawchuk had to do it when traveling by train was the way to go, there usually wasnt a backup goalie and no trainers to provide the comforts todays goalies have. Not knocking todays goalies because we have the good fortune of watching great goaltending today, I just think under the circumstances and the pure numbers that Sawchuk is the best goalie of all time!
