====Hybrid style==== This style of goaltending is a combination of both stand-up and butterfly style, where the goaltender primarily relies on reaction, save selection, and positioning to make saves. Hybrid goaltenders will usually control rebounds well, deflect low shots with their sticks, will utilize the butterfly, and are generally not as predictable as goaltenders who rely heavily on the butterfly as a save selection. Most players are not pure stand-up or butterfly, but simply tend to prefer stand-up or butterfly over the other. If a player does not have any preferences, he is considered a hybrid goaltender. All modern NHL goaltenders generally use some form of this style. Some goaltenders who do this effectively are [[Ryan Miller]], [[Jaroslav Halák]], [[Jimmy Howard]], [[Tuukka Rask]], [[Carey Price]] and formerly [[Evgeni Nabokov]] and [[Martin Brodeur]].
