San Jose assistant coach blast voters for not having W Karlsson in top 3 selke

[AfroThunder396]

Karlsson had a great season, but I don't know how you can possibly knock any of the other three out. Bergeron was a PPG this season, Kopitar is a finalist for the Hart, and Couturier's numbers are almost identical to WK's.

Well it is not a plusminus award. A quick look at his on-ice saves percentage of .945 tells a lot about where those pluses came from. Besides him scoring 43 goals with over 23 shooting percentage.

If there was an award for him to win, it would be the Unsustainable trophy.

All due respect, Wild Bill has played awesome, his team has played awesome and are deserved favorites to win the final series. But plusminus is a stat that comes from things not under one player`s control, especially in the cases of these huge deviations like his +49 is.

Cant go a year without someone complaining about Karlsson not winning an award...

While I agree Karlsson is underrated defensively, using plus-minus as your primary selke argument is not going to get you far.

Reading the article, Hedberg only talks about his actual play. The journalist is the one adding stats for context.
