that. Pass on Eddy.

Jonathan: Agreed there is absolutely no shame in that. But to my mind there were two tiers of great goalies in the "Dead Puck Era", and Cujo ranks somewhere near the top of the second tier. I'm with BDHS that the first tier is those four guys you mentioned, including Billion-Dollar Belfour. No argument that he was a prick, but he was a hell of a good goalie. Better than Cujo, judging by the record.

Sv% is a wash, but Belfour is clearly better otherwise, and the gap widens in the post-season. You might argue that he played on better teams, but I would counter he was a difference-maker who made those teams better.

Belfour led the league in wins once, Sv% twice, individual GAA twice, andin shutouts four times. Joseph led in Sv% once.

Belfour made the All-Rookie team, was named to two end-of-season Frist All-Star Teams and one Second Team. Joseph was shut out of those honours. Belfour played in five All-Star games, Joseph two.

Belfour won 7 major trophies in his career (the Calder, 2 Vezinas, 4 Jennings), while Cujo has one, if you even consider the King Clancy a major trophy.(I do, because I consider humanitarianism rather important, and in that respect Cujo has it all over Eddie the Eagle. But I'm making this argument from a hockey perspective.)

Finally, Belfour played in three Stanley Cup Finals, winning the Big One in 1999. Joseph never made it out of his conference.

Add it all up, and Belfour is a first-ballot Hall of Famer, just
