- Fleury, who was voted a finalist by NHL general managers for the Vezina Trophy, which is awarded to the best goalie in the regular season, started 15 of the Golden Knights' first 16 games in the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
- He has the best GAA of any goalie who has played at least 10 games.
- Lehner, a finalist for the Vezina in 2018-19 with the New York Islanders, started Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Second Round against the Colorado Avalanche on May 30 and allowed seven goals on 37 shots in a 7-1 loss.
- Lehner did not dress for Games 2 and 3 against Colorado for undisclosed reasons but backed up Fleury every game after that.
- DeBoer has said he will play the goalie who gives Vegas the best chance to win since the Golden Knights acquired Lehner in a three-team trade Feb.
