Vezina Race (part II): The final countdown (Mod warning in OP)

[ottawa]

Enough with the fanbase discussions. Keep on topic.

Just a quarter of the season left (realistically, ~15 games for each starter) and its mostly a 2-man race between Price and Rinne.

Carey Price:

• GP: 54
• Wins: 37 (1st)
• Save%: 0.937 (1st)
• GAA: 1.87 (1st)
• Shutouts: 7 (2nd)

Pekka Rinne:

• GP: 52
• Wins: 36 (2nd)
• Save%: .927 (3rd)
• GAA: 2.11 (2nd)
• Shutouts: 3 (10th)

In the mix or outside chance (in no order)

• Marc-Andre Fleury
• Braden Holtby
• Jimmy Howard
• Tuukka Rask
• Cory Schneider

My guess for the 3 finalists are Price, Rinne and Holtby.

 

[didimentionlarseller]

if the list is in no particular order can we change it and put Price at the top of the list? just for alphabetical order

 

[FinPanda]

Can you fix Rask's name? Tuukka not Tukka. Thanks.

But this is very interesting race.

 

[EXTRAS]

Dubnyk for spot número 3 if he keeps up play of last 15 games for rest of season and wild make playoffs. His stats in Arizona were even ridiculous compared to smith. Taking the wild to the playoffs while playing .940 hockey baby.

Not sure why it matters that much, but sure. Put it all in alphabetical order.

Not a chance he even gets #3-5 regardless of whether he plays the next 15 games or not. You can't just play great down the stretch, it takes a consistent effort imo

He won't even have played 50 games, very unlikely.

Well this game will definitely hurt Rinne's numbers unless he turns everything away in the 2nd and 3rd.

''Rinne faces better teams than Price cause he's paying in the West''

...then proceeds to allow 3 goals in one period against an Eastern team.

Nah man, you didn't It's Tuukka.

 

[Oan]

So, will this game be the one that finally ruins any chances Rinne had? Since obviously Price won't have any games such as this anymore this season.

 

[vancityluongo]

In the mix or outside chance (in no order)

• Marc-Andre Fleury
• Braden Holtby
• Jimmy Howard
• Tukkaa Rask
• Cory Schneider

Homer vote for Luongo as well.

 

[ottawa]

Haha wow, I'm an idiot

 

[TRG]

Haha wow, I'm an idiot

It's okay though, it's only the Bruins goalie

 

[PredsFanFromla]

Rinne lost his chance at winning Vezina by allowing 3 goals against the isles in the first.Congrats Price you just won the Vezina Trophy

 

[ottawa]

Homer vote for Luongo as well.

Like to win it all? or you think he has an outside chance?

Nice jinx. Price let in 3 in a period to the Sabres few weeks ago

Yeah, they are playing against buffalo and he gave up 3 goals, season is ruined.

 

[ottawa]

lirl...poor Rinne. Isles up 5-2

 

[BusQuets]

Wow Predators defense is much worse than expected. Price has to get more lead imo. Montreal playing amazing defensive hockey.

 

[bigtimehockeyfan999*]

Rinnes having a bad bad night.

 

[PredsFanFromla]

Rinne wasn't gonna win the Vezina anyway,Everybody knows that the NHL already has Price's name on it
