Hellebuyck is on his way to win his 3rd Vezina in 6 years

Care to expand?
The fans were very happy to have him in our system.
He chose to not even try to play for the team when there was a clear path to a key role this year or next.
Instead he worked his way to the AHL for a team headed for a rebuild.
Go check with our roster and see if they agree with this weird assessment.

He wanted to have a chance to play in the NHL. Your team wouldn't even commit to the appearance that he'd get a chance in the NHL. They were so completely against it.

Pittsburgh said they'd give him a legit shot to play in the NHL, and they kept their word when he made their team to start the season. Seems pretty straight forward.

He's the best regular season goalie in the league but this year he must show that he has what it takes in the playoffs, too.

Actually I heard he's gonna mail it in and be on the Stanley Cup champ team, weird but true.

Decent chance to be the best American goalie of all time

Nice stat but that's like being the hottest Denny's waitress...

He’s hard to view as one of the best goalies ever.

His playoff stats suck and he’s always played for a great defensive team that inflates his stats. Some of these analytical websites don’t even have him with the best goaltending analytics this year. His counting stats are amazing and that’s why he’ll win it.

One of the best of his era, sure.

Really?
