Suffice it to say Gillies was among the top goalies at his age, won a national championship, showed well in a brief AHL cameo and has all the physical attributes you look for in a goalie.

Of course, one might argue that Parsons too qualifies most of those as well. Well, other than being super-sized. They're just not a sufficient collection of attributes to make any definitive claims.

Agreed. I am simply arguing that declaring him a peer of guys like Matt Murray and Connor Hellebuyck, which ricardodw did, makes no sense as those guys have greater resumes as professionals.
