Yes and no, but I don't care either way. I'd rather have an under-rated dominant goalie than one who was known for his dominance...
Either way, just posting a link with a LaBarbera mention.

I don't recall the Kings ever having a dominant goalie... EVER!
Your definition might be different than mine though.

Barbs is not a top 30 goaltender. He is a good backup goaltender but that is about it. Kudos to Garon though for making the list. He is a premier backup goalie. And I would say Hrudey and Vachon were pretty dominant goaltenders in their own right.

I agree - Hrudey and Vachon were dominant in their time. Have we had one since? I don't think so...
