Do you know your Stanley Cup-winning goalies? Take the ‘Who Didn't He Play For?' quiz

In the Stanley Cup playoffs, it's all about the goalies. The team that gets the better goaltending always wins, except for the times that they don't, but it's always better to have a big-name star, unless it's one of those years where the winning team can just throw anyone back there. Glad we cleared all that up. Let's do a quiz. Advertisement I'll give you 16 goaltenders who have their name on the Stanley Cup, plus four teams for each. You tell me which one of those teams that goalie never played a game for. Nice and simple. I'm sure you'll do great. Complete the quiz below, then scroll back up to see how you did using this handy scoring chart: 16 correct: You are Ken Dryden, and can basically win the Cup whenever you feel like it. 12-15 correct: You are Patrick Roy, owner of multiple Conn Smythe trophies. 8-11 correct: You're Jonathan Quick, saving your best for when it's needed. 4-7 correct: You're Henrik Lundqvist; you had your moments, but couldn't get a ring. 1-3 correct: You're Playoff Freddie Andersen. Hey, it could always be worse. 0 correct: You're Connor Hellebuyck on the road.
