The Vezina Trophy is awarded annually to the NHL's top goaltender as voted by the general managers of all 31 clubs. Two recent winners are once again in contention for this prestigious honor.
Connor Hellebuyck of the Winnipeg Jets won the Vezina for the first time last season. He also became the first goaltender in Jets history to accomplish that feat.
The Tampa Bay Lightning's Andrei Vasilevskiy was also a first-time winner in 2018-19. Like Hellebuyck, he was the first netminder in his franchise's history to take home the award.
Hellebuyck and Vasilevskiy remain among this season's elite netminders past the midpoint of the 2020-21 schedule.
