Pekka Rinne loses Vezina Trophy bid to Carey Price

The NHL general managers picked Carey Price as the best goaltender in the league this year.

It really wasn't going to go any other way.

For the third time, Pekka Rinne misses out on the Vezina Trophy after being named a finalist. Rinne racked up a .923 Sv% and a 2.18 GA in 64 appearances this year, and was arguably the Predators MVP throughout the season.

However, his Montreal Canadiens counterpart registered a sterling .933 Sv% and a miniscule 1.96 GAA in 66 appearances. At times, Price was one of the only reasons the Habs were anything more than a bubble team.
