The Vezina goes to the NHL’s top goaltender, and the market can swing in a hurry. A netminder on a hot team rockets up the board, an injury or a cold month sinks a favorite, and the voters don’t always reward the same things the bettors do.

This page is the record. Each season we have on file is below, with the chart showing how the market moved, a recap of how the winner got there, dated movement notes, and the closing odds.

2023 Vezina Trophy Odds

Linus Ullmark had the kind of season goalies dream about. The Bruins netminder led the entire NHL in wins, goals-against average, and save percentage, going 40-6-1 with a 1.89 GAA and a .938 mark behind a record-setting Boston team.

He even got his name on the scoresheet, flipping a puck the length of the ice into an empty Vancouver net. Ullmark ran away with his first Vezina, closing at -1100.

The chart and notes below show how the 2023 market moved.

2022 Vezina Trophy Odds

Igor Shesterkin didn’t just win the Vezina, he forced his way into the MVP conversation. The Rangers netminder took the 2022 award in a landslide after a season that had him at a 1.95 GAA and a .941 save percentage at one February checkpoint.

Andrei Vasilevskiy opened as the favorite and Jack Campbell led the market in January, but once Shesterkin caught fire there was no slowing him down.

Here’s how the 2022 Vezina odds moved across the season.

2021 Vezina Trophy Odds

It took until the back nine of a hall-of-fame career, but Marc-Andre Fleury finally got his Vezina. The Vegas veteran claimed the first of his career in 2021, outlasting a three-goalie race that ran through Andrei Vasilevskiy and Philipp Grubauer.

Vasilevskiy actually closed as the betting favorite at -170, but the voters went with Fleury, who took over the Vegas crease from an injured Robin Lehner and ran with it.

Below is how the 2021 Vezina race played out.

2020 Vezina Trophy Odds

The market favorite didn’t win this one either. Tuukka Rask sat atop the 2020 Vezina odds as late as March, listed at +175, but it was Connor Hellebuyck who skated off with the trophy.

Hellebuyck opened as a +2000 longshot in the fall and climbed to a +250 second choice by March before taking the award. Rask led the NHL in goals-against average but had played only 38 games.

Here’s how the 2020 Vezina odds played out.

• [October 11] Frederik Andersen drifted from +550 to +800 after an ugly start (2-2, 3.75 GAA, .878 SV%). John Gibson (1.26 GAA, .961 SV%) improved from +2000 to +900.

2019 Vezina Trophy Odds

Wins still matter to Vezina voters, and Andrei Vasilevskiy proved it in 2019. The Tampa Bay starter took the award in a landslide, drawing 28 of 30 first-place votes on the strength of a league-best 39-10-4 record.

What makes it notable is that Vasilevskiy didn’t crack the top five in goals-against average or save percentage, and he missed time with injury along the way. The chart above tracks his odds from when they opened in September 2018 through the last update before the June awards show.
