Conner Hellebuyck the Vezina Candidate


Colin Unger

Recommended Posts

After Conner McDavid put on a show against Andrei Vasilevskiy it would appear that Conner Hellebuyck is not within striking distance of him in the Vezina race.  What do you guys think it would take for Hellebuyck to win the award?  He is currently 4 behind in terms of wins but also has 4 fewer regulation losses.  If he can end up within 2 or 3 wins and have fewer loses I would say this category will be a draw. All it would take right now is a Hellebuyck shutout and one poor performance by Vasilevskiy  and they would pretty much be in a dead heat. Thoughts?

lol. 

 

Id love to see Helly win the Vez but I don't think its in the cards this year. he will definitely be in the running though.. if he gets hot (hotter?) and reels off another shut out or 2 and keeps his percentage up and goals down... who knows.

I think the team's injury woes could also be detrimental as it will equal more pressure on helly... more shots, rebs, etc.
