Forgot about Lehner too.

Vasilevskiy has 51 starts. That's pretty damn low too, but you have him as a clear nominee. Lehner has 44.
I would nominate Bishop over Price, Rask, and Andersen. Apart from wins, he's as good or better in overall numbers than those three.
Second in the league in GAA, first in save %, and tied for third in shutouts. He's done as much as Price has in helping his team fight for a playoff spot, he's been more consistent than Andersen (who seems to have fallen off a cliff lately), and he dwarfs Rask in personal stats.
