Personally, Belfour and Hasek are too close to each other and as a Belfour fan boy, I'll choose Belfour over Hasek. But that's nothing based on stats. He was just awesome to watch all the time.

EDIT: Best goalie ever to never play in the NHL when he rightfully should have, Tretiak. Put him Fourth. Dryden, Sawchuk, Plante...theres a really long list of goalies in this debate.

Double Edit: Good for Hasek and Buffalo. He was a major part of everything they built up in in the late 90's and early 2000's. Deserved honor.

Hasek won 6 Vezina trophies and 2 Hart trophies while Brodeur, Roy and Belfour were all in their primes...
