With Lundqvist, Rinne, Rask, and potentially Price out of the game these past couple years, it's crazy how suddenly the old guard of elite goaltenders has changed over.
Just Fleury, Quick, and Bobrovsky will be left from the top 10 goalies with the most GP in the 2010s unless Price does manage to come back.

With regard to Rinne specifically, someone on reddit put together an infographic for his career. I didn't realize he was tied for 19th in all-time wins, and 2nd for goalies who played for a single team (a niche stat, but still). Pretty impressive. Nashville will miss him.
