But is this because of the value of goaltenders as prospects, or the value they hold at the entry draft? There is a big difference, in the same sense that while defensemen tend to drop lower in the entry draft than forwards, they are often the most valuable prospects and players on their team. Draft position doesn't really matter after the fact, I don't think.
