Think The Vezina Race Is Going To Be Close?

Take a look at the two leading contenders for the Vezina Trophy as the League's best goaltender (stats through last night's games):

Martin Brodeur: 69 games played; 42 wins, 20 regulation losses, 7 OT/SO losses; 1,956 shots against, 1804 saves (.922 %)

Roberto Luongo: 68 games played; 42 wins, 20 regulation losses, 5 OT/SO losses; 1,956 shots against, 1802 saves (.921 %)

That's right - the same exact number of shots faced, wins and regulation losses for the two. Brodeur has the edge in goals against average (2.20 to 2.30) and shutouts (12 to 3), but this race is going to come right down to the wire.

As for the likely third finalist, this guy gets my vote:
