I see the Oilers getting shutout of all the awards this season--expect the Hart finalists to be Kucherov, MacKinnon, and Matthews.

I'm ok with that as long as an Oiler wins the Conn Smythe.

Colour me surprised--it looks like the hockey writers proved me wrong.

McDavid was named one of the Hart finalists (with Kucherov and MacKinnon):

https://www.nhl.com/news/2024-nhl-hart-trophy-finalists-anno unced.

I guess with Matthews nominated for both the Lady Bying and Selke (as well as being guaranteed the Rocket Richard) he didn't need this.

I still predict McDavid will be third in voting (and that's probably not unreasonable).

Man, Matthews is so good defensively, you would think he would play on the PK once in a while. I guess he did somehow get his first short-handed point of his career this season, maybe had to come out at the tail end of a 4 min or 5 min. Or rare 2nd unit duty when Marner is in the box.

The stat tracker for the leafs probably needs a forced replacement. Matthews just gets infinite takeaways. Also the pens one, old man Malkin has even more takeaways and seems to almost never give the puck away too.

Seriously? Selke voting?!? Without penalty killing on the resume? Interesting take. He's 14th in +/- too...so what's the rationale here? Just Toronto cabal of sports media who couldn't bear leaving him off the list on Hart so threw him a bone somewhere else?

Ever heard of a stat called "Loose puck retrievals??"

He racks up takeaways too, but those stats are really hard to trust with the variance of stat keepers thresholds between arenas.

Feels like voters just out of ideas and Matthews takeaway highlights get played up a lot with TO media. Might be a lot of players with voting totals very close to Matthews. He just got over the hump for 3rd with a little "shoved down peoples throats" boost.

I'm blame Bergeron. If he hadn't retired, then it's a free spot on the bingo card for the media guys. He's gone and all of a sudden they have to fill that with someone.

"Thinking that a bad team's best players are the reason the team is bad is the "Tambellini re-signing Lennart Petrell" of sports opinions." @Woodguy55
