Man the elite level of goaltending in the Q just isn't there anymore.

I remember when the best goalies in the league could win games on their own. If you had a top goalie your team was above .500.

Now the best goalies are a benefit of a system as opposed to skill learning the system.

I never really gave a ton of thought as to why the Quebec league has dropped the ball with goaltending, but cost in minor hockey is probably a huge reason. We're seeing the kids of the recession coming though now.
