NHL.com lists top 10 goalies for Draft

Moose Jaw goaltender Zachary Sawchenko knows the stereotype that's associated with players at his position.
He gets it and is more than willing to educate the general public.
"There's the perception that all goalies are weird but I don't necessarily think you can call it weird, but we're a little different because we have to be different," Sawchenko said. "There's something different about a person who wants to stand in front of pucks and take slap shots off the head. I don't know if you can even call it different. How about unique?"

Unique indeed. Sawchenko still remembers the day he first played in goal and enjoyed it so much that he was obsessed with reaching the highest level playing the position. A second-round pick (No. 33) in the 2012 Western Hockey League bantam draft by Moose Jaw, Sawchenko won his first WHL start for the Warriors as a 14-years-old against Swift Current on Aug. 28, 2012.

"It was a great experience [to win my first start]," Sawchenko said. "It was nerve-racking playing against 18- and 19-year-old players, and living away from home. It was an eye-opening experience but a good experience."
Sawchenko (6-foot, 179 pounds), a native of Calgary, is No. 6 on NHL Central Scouting's final ranking of North American goaltenders eligible for the 2016 NHL Draft at First Niagara Center in Buffalo on June 24-25.
