The «Gold»tenders
|
 | Patrick Roy (8,5M$ in 2002-03) |
| Dominik Hasek (8,0M$) |
| Curtis Joseph (8,0M$) |
| Ed Belfour (7,0M$) |
| Martin Brodeur (6,9M$) |
| Olaf Kolzig (6,3M$) |
| Sean Burke (4,5M$) |
| Nikolai Khabibulin (4,4M$) |
| Tommy Salo (3,9M$) |
The incredible performances of some young goaltenders in the last few years also pushed the salaries a step higher. These keepers, younger than 30, are already established as great assets for an hockey team and as…millionaires.
| José Théodore (5,5M$) |
| J-Sébastien Giguère (4,5M$) |
| Marty Turco (3,7M$) |
| Jocelyn Thibault (3,1M$) |
| Martin Biron (2,2M$) |
Some general managers were lucky (or simply wise) to sign long term contracts which became real bargains when you look at the ensuing performances. In this category, we have young number ones, great back ups and some older ones who are giving a great return on the investment.
| Roman Cechmanek (3,0M$) |
| Patrick Lalime (2,6M$) |
| Dwayne Roloson (2,2M$) |
| Manny Fernandez (2,2M$) |
| Roberto Luongo (1,9M$) |
| Marc Denis (1,6M$) |
| Tomas Vokoun (1,2M$) |
| Manny Legace (1,1M$) |
| Martin Gerber (0,5M$) |
At the opposite of the previous category, the following goaltenders are giving headaches to the GMs that gave them lucrative contracts without proper results showing up.
| Roman Turek (4,3M$) |
| Evgeni Nabokov (3,7M$) |
| Chris Osgood (3,0M$) |
| Dan Cloutier (2,5M$) |
Sometime, money is just not invested at the right place, particularly for teams which that are paying a lot of money for their back-up goaltenders. We're not saying that these goalies are not playing well, but when you look at their salaries… it hurts.
| Byron Dafoe (3,5M$) |
| Ron Tugnutt (2,8M$) |
| Arthus Irbe (2,7M$) |
| Brian Boucher (2,0M$) |
