1.  Sergei Bobrovsky

Since joining the Columbus Blue Jackets in 2012 as an acquisition from the Philadelphia Flyers, Sergei Bobrovsky has been stellar.  In the shortened 2012 season, he was 21-11-6 with a goals against average of 2.00 and a .932 save percentage.

That 2012-13 season saw Bobrovsky win the Vezina Trophy and also be selected to the NHL First All-Star Team.

As it is still very early in his career, Bobrovsky hasn’t seen much action in national team play.  He won a bronze medal with Russia in the 2008 (Under 20) World Junior Championships and in the 2007 Super Series.
