Yup

I like it

 

[Hockey Outsider]

This is Bergeron's 10th time as a finalist. Nobody else has been a finalist more than six times (Carbonneau, Datsyuk, Lehtinen, Ramsay).

 

[Regal]

Not surprising. Seemed the most likely 3. I think Barkov will probably take it given what I've seen from the media, with Stone a close second.

 

[Huokaus]

It probably should be Bergeron again but this might be the year voter fatigue and media storylines will turn the tide to Barkov's favour (and tbh I'm totally fine with that).

 

[Black Kevin]

Lol Barkov. He will win it tho. It's his turn.

 

[wintersej]

I think Barkov takes it. Just want to be sure Bergeron gets his Lidstrom Norris before he retires so he breaks the record. I think we all know Barkov put in a Selke quality season.

Insane how well Bergeron has aged. Hands down the best remaining active player from the 2003 draft. And can legitimately make the claim as the best player from the draft class.

Barkov was a top 5/10 player this year

 

[Gizmo Tkachuk]

Would obv love to see Barkov win, but wouldn't mind not if it saves a mil on his upcoming extension

 

[Steven Toast]

Pavelski should be in there.

 

[senators101]

Is this just for runner-up, I thought Matthews had already won this.

This made me spit out my beer. Thank you.

Stone has been deserving many other years but this year isn’t a year he’s top 3. Shows how much this is a reputation award. Eriksson Ek was robbed of a nomination.

 

[Cursed Lemon]

We sure we don't wanna sneak Crosby in there somewhere?

I'd rather see Barky get his hardware. He deserves it this year.

 

[SoldiersOfFilth]

Per the analytics this is actually Barkov > Bergeron. It won't just be voter fatigue.

except, that's not true

 

[Human]

He’s going to come in fourth this year, and win a couple at the tail end of his career. He’s obviously going to troll Wings fans like he did all the time...

 

[jetsforever]

I'm surprised Barkov hasn't been a finalist yet
I bet it's him or Stone though, Bergeron has won enough

 

[nhlfan9191]

Joe Thornton told me Matthews would be winning this award. What’s going on here?

 

[LeProspector]

Nice to see Stone named a finalist.

Crazy that when your offensive numbers improve, voters notice you're also good defensively.

Eriksson Ek deserved a nomination at least.

Care to post them? Because quite the opposite from what I've seen.

 

[rocketdan9]

Lol Barkov. He will win it tho. It's his turn.

Naw Bergeron should win it

He was top 3 in faceoffs, PK...while also putting up points

He should break the record and win his 5th Selke

 

[Buck Naked]

It's time for a winger to win this one. Stone's been amazing this year.

30 points in 56 games is not going to get you in
