Connor, Ilya Sorokin (New York Islanders), and Linus Ullmark (Boston Bruins) are the final trio that will compete for the Vezina Trophy, as the award is given every year to the best goaltender in the league.
Jets goalie Connor triumphed with the Vezina Trophy in 2020 and had one 2nd place in 2018 when Pekka Rinne won.
Hellebuyck finished the past season with the highest save percentage in the NHL.
Sorokin had the league’s highest 6 shutouts.
Ullmark recorded the most wins among goaltenders and topped save percentage and goals-against-average stats.
