In the last 4 years, there have been 10 different Vezina finalists. Only Vasilevskiy has been nominated more than once. If you go back 5 years only two (add Hellebuyck) have been nominated more than once.
So much variation from year to year. Deciding whether or not to committ to a tender must be very difficult.
I would say right now the #1s i would count on going forward, with high confidence, would be Shesterkin, Hellebuyck, Vasilevskiy, and Oettinger.
That's it. That's the list.

I'd add Ilya Sorokin to that list, but yep.
