Hasek had the best peak but not the longevity. His teams both international and Buffalo played styfling defensive hockey in the dead puck era which inflate his numbers. That said those 8 years that he won 6 vezinas were untouched.

I dont know but I put Roy and Brodeur ahead based on longevity. I also have Gretzkey over Lemieux and Orr so I think the Goat disussions that it is about more than the peak performance. Definately in the top 3 post expansion and the order of those three doesnt really matter.
I personally have Ken Dryden #1, short career but IMO a better peak than Hasek. In 8 seasons he won 5 Vezina Trophies, 6 Stanley Cups, 1 Conn Smythe, 1 Calder (after he won the Conn Smythe!)
