Bruins GK Linus Ullmark Driving Most Vezina Trophy Bets at BetMGM

Goaltender Linus Ullmark’s exceptional performance has been a key factor in the historic season of the Boston Bruins.

Currently leading the race for the Vezina Trophy, Ullmark is a strong contender for the highly esteemed title bestowed upon the NHL’s finest goaltender on a yearly basis.

BetMGM Sportsbook has attracted the attention of sports bettors, thanks to his remarkable season.

BetMGM Vezina Trophy Odds

At the start of the season, Ullmark’s chances of winning the Vezina Trophy were +8000. However, the 29-year-old goaltender from Sweden is now the clear favorite with odds of -400 at BetMGM Massachusetts. His dominance in the market is evident, with Ilya Sorokin being the closest competitor at +700 odds.

Don’t miss out on the opportunity to register for BetMGM in Massachusetts and take advantage of those favorable odds.

Ullmark is currently the riskiest bet for BetMGM in the Vezina Trophy betting market across all live states. He holds the highest ticket percentage at 25.9% and the highest handle at 61.9%.

It is worth mentioning that the BetMGM app is not yet available in Massachusetts. In states where residents can legally use sportsbook apps to place bets on their preferred players, ticket percentage and handle can often be influenced. The fact that Ullmark has achieved such dominance in ticket percentage and handle highlights the widespread agreement among NHL fans that he is the top goalie.

Ullmark is currently at the top of the NHL in wins (31), save percentage (.938), and goals against average (1.88). With approximately one and a half months remaining in the regular season, Ullmark’s exceptional performance puts him on a promising path towards the Vezina Trophy.

In a bid to make his season truly remarkable, Ullmark achieved an extraordinary feat by scoring a goalie goal against the Canucks on Feb. 25. This accomplishment placed him among an elite group of only 10 NHL goalies to have scored since 2000, with the last one being Pekka Rinne in 2020.

The Vezina Trophy has been claimed by a Bruin on 10 occasions. Previous recipients from Boston include Tiny Thompson (1929-30, 1932-33, 1935-56, 1937-38), Frank Brimsek (1938-39, 1941-42), Pete Peeters (1982-83), Tim Thomas (2008-09, 2010-11), and Tuukka Rask (2013-14).
