But that doesn't indicate a trend of how NHL teams view goalies going forward. Drafting does.
And still 3 of 8 being below average height isn't really indicative of much. The winner Ullmark is 6'5", the first runner up Sorokin 6'3", second runner up Hellebuyck 6'4", 4th runner up Oettinger 6'5", 5th runner up Vasilevsky 6'5". Only Saros cracked the top 5.
