The Globe and Mail

Connor Hellebuyck of the Winnipeg Jets is vying for his second consecutive Vezina Trophy, awarded to the NHL's best goaltender. After an impressive 2024-25 regular season, with a league-leading 47 wins and a 2.00 goals-against average, his playoff performance has left fans concerned. Hellebuyck faltered in recent games against the St. Louis Blues, allowing 11 goals over two contests, leading to a tied series despite Winnipeg's regular-season dominance.

Joining Hellebuyck as finalists are Darcy Kuemper, who played a significant role in the Los Angeles Kings' success with 31 wins and a 2.02 GAA, and Andrei Vasilevskiy of the Tampa Bay Lightning, a consistent presence with a solid track record. Both Kuemper and Vasilevskiy are also facing challenges in their respective playoff series.
