Interesting that the league GMs thought more highly of Beezer than did the media. The only time the media really seems to get involved with him significantly more than the GMs are 1994 and 1997 - two of Beezer's best statistical seasons by rank. The other one is 1992, but it's largely ignored by the media because of the proximity to Richter in the ranks (GAA; Save pct. for Beezer/Richter: 4th/9th; 4th/6th). Richter and Beezer each got a vote from the media. Richter got a single 3rd place vote from the GMs, but Beezer received 5 votes, and had Richter's vote gone to Beezer, the latter would have finished t-4th in the Vezina that year. But meanwhile, he appeared on nearly a quarter of the GMs ballots.
A case of the GMs recognizing talent and worth to a club over statistics? A case of Beezer not being well liked by the media? A total coincidence?
