An argument can be made for any one of those three. No matter who ultimately wins, it'll be well deserved.

I think it is Shesterkin's to lose

Is Markstrom already the 3rd best goalie in Calgary Flames history?

Great season for Markstrom. Good to see him get recognition by being a finalist. Shesterkin has been discussed as the winner for months now, it seems, though

totally different eras, and the ability to evaluate goaltenders was also different back then but Lemelin was a Vezina 'finalist' (using modern parameters) twice at least during his term in Calgary

What a great signing by the Flames. Markstrom has been what I hoped he would be this season and looks great in the playoffs so far

I'd agree we need a few more excellent seasons out of Markstrom before he overtakes Lemelin.

Not yet. But if he goes to R2 or R3 this year, then definitely yes.

Shesterkin had a fantastic regular season, but Markström has been better in the playoffs (so far), and I'd rather have that.

I thought the votes were based on the regular season though?

I don’t like it when sports fans try to lump in playoff performance for regular season trophies. NBA fans are doing the same thing to discredit Jokic’s MVP win this year. There’s a Conn Smythe trophy for a reason. Igor is definitely gonna win it but I’m glad Marky is a finalist. Feels good to have a great goalie between the pipes again that’s worthy enough of being up for the Vezina

Well, it's already been won or lost. "Finalists" is a bit of a misnomer since there's no finals to compete in.

Pat Riggin played great getting the Flames to the third round.
I think Markstrom needs more than one good season.

Awesome, should be the end of the not elite and only homers think he is a top tier goalie talk.
NHL GMs are Flames homers?

A Swede, a Finn and a Russian.
Maybe we dodged a bullet not going to the Olympics this year...

I was so jacked when Treliving signed him. And I remain so. Markstrom is an elite goalie.
I think Shesterkin likely won it, but that doesn't negate the fact that Markstrom had a great season.

Of course it doesn't, that's why he is a finalist

Top 3 player in his position in the best league in the world, pretty special and doesn't happen too often
Vezina finalists in Flames history?
Kipper, Markstrom, Vernon...that's it I think
