Russia has produced several great NHL forwards and defensemen. However, the number of notable goaltenders from that country to reach the league before 2010 was limited to Nikolai Khabibulin, Evgeni Nabokov and Ilya Bryzgalov.

So how do today's crop of active Russian NHL goaltenders measure up against one another? That's what we'll endeavor to find out with this ranking, taking performance and individual awards into account.
