It’s a fans’ vote, which is to say that balloting for the NHL’s All Quarter-Century Team is meant to be a fun exercise off which there can be no incorrect conclusions.
Except I am sorry to say that there is an incorrect conclusion when it comes to the six goaltenders named to this 25-season squad. A glaringly incorrect conclusion, in fact, plus a rather bizarre inclusion.
This quarter-century presumably began with the 1999-2000 season, so I am not quite sure why credits earned, in, say, the 1980s would come into the mix. But apparently they did.
Because Patrick Roy, who retired after the 2002-03 season, is somehow on this list, alongside Henrik Lundqvist, Martin Brodeur, Marc-Andre Fleury, Roberto Luongo and Carey Price.
