EA Sports NHL has revealed the top-rated overall goaltenders in NHL 25.
Winnipeg Jet and reigning Vezina Trophy winner Connor Hellebuyck is the top rated goaltender and 13th highest rated player in the game, coming in at 93 overall.
The ten highest rated goalies are:
-
Connor Hellebuyck – 93
-
Igor Shesterkin – 92
-
Andrei Vasilevskiy – 92
-
Thatcher Demko – 91
-
Jake Oettinger – 90
-
Sergei Bobrovsky – 90
-
Ilya Sorokin – 90
-
Juuse Saros – 89
-
Jeremy Swayman – 89
-
Linus Ullmark – 89
The strength of Russian and American goaltending is evident in this list, with eight of the 10 hailing from the two countries. Juuse Saros from Finland and Linus Ullmark from Sweden round out the list.
Hellebuyck, Shesterkin, Vasilevskiy, Bobrovsky, and Ullmark are all past Vezina winners, while Demko, Saros, and Sorokin have all been nominated for the award. Bobrovsky and Demko were runners-up for the 2023-24 Vezina.
Eight of the 10 goaltenders on this list were among the top 10 at the beginning of NHL 24, Frederik Andersen and Carter Hart drop out of the top 10 and are replaced by 2024 Stanley Cup champion Sergei Bobrovsky and 2022-23 William M. Jennings winner Jeremy Swayman.

Saros, Swayman, and Ullmark are all rated in the 60s in total overall ranking. Given the importance of goaltending in the NHL we could see these overalls begin to climb once the season gets underway.
The goalie ratings were posted on social media and on the EA website.
