Was Connor Hellebuyck deserving of the Hart Trophy?



Jets goaltender Connor Hellebuyck is taking home some hardware this season, winning the Vezina Trophy as the league’s top goaltender and the Hart Trophy as the most valuable player. Was Hellebuyck deserving of the Hart Trophy? TSN Director of Scouting Craig Button joins SC with Jay Onrait to discuss.

  1. Everyone could see what the Jets are "without" Connor Hellebuyck in the playoffs, so this is probably fully deserved. He was the main reason for them winning the President's. Just a great great great reg season player. Kucherov could have won, too. Draisaitl was the best player but the NHL can't afford to reward such an obvious load-management.

  2. Yes. Any of the 4 guys in the conversation absolutely deserved to win. But there can be only one so even if helle wasn't my favorit I won't rage about it.
    BUT after the playoffs… If the league needs any case to change their timing for the awards it should be this one.

    If it's a regular season award, then please just award the guys after the regular season. Why are we waiting 1 month?

  3. TSN would not be able to contain themselves if Mathews won three awards in one year let alone ask if he deserved it in response.
