For me it has to be Tony Esposito. He holds the modern day record of 15 shutouts during his 1969-70 season with the Blackhawks. He also won the Calder Trophy that same season. All without the advantage of bigger and lighter goalie equipment. He also played the butterfly style as opposed to the standup that other golaies used.

Awards:

1969 - NHL Calder
1969 - NHL Vezina
1969 - NHL First Team All-Star
1971 - NHL Vezina shared
1971 - NHL First Team All-Star
1972 - NHL Second Team All-Star
1973 - NHL Vezina tie
1973 - NHL Second Team All-Star
1979 - NHL First Team All-Star
