Goaltender

Sergei Bobrovsky is a Russian goaltender who has won two Vezina Trophies and backstopped the Florida Panthers to back-to-back Stanley Cups in 2024 and 2025.

An undrafted free agent who went on to win the Vezina Trophy twice — in 2013 and 2017 — Sergei Bobrovsky completed his case as one of the finest goaltenders of his generation by winning back-to-back Stanley Cups with the Florida Panthers in 2024 and 2025. Bobrovsky was traded to the Columbus Blue Jackets in 2012, where he won the Vezina Trophy as the league's top goaltender in both 2013 and 2017, becoming one of the most decorated goaltenders of his generation in the modern era. Bobrovsky signed with the Florida Panthers in 2019, and delivered career-defining performances during the team's championship runs, winning back-to-back Stanley Cups in 2024 and 2025 as the franchise's starting netminder. Bobrovsky has continued to anchor Florida's crease well into his late thirties, refining his technique throughout his career, including adopting the reverse-VH style during his time in Columbus, and remains one of the most accomplished goaltenders to have come through the Russian development system.
