Kane is among the scoring leaders. Those guys generally get attention for the Hart. If you play on a good team, you may or may not be a scoring leader. Please note that Corey Perry and Ryan Getzlaf are among the top 30 in NHL scoring despite playing for the Ducks. Playing on a team that is beating the world does not necessarily mean that you're scoring at an unsustainable rate. Kane is just plain good.

Fasth is a goalie. As a goalie, if you're playing behind a team that's kicking all kinds of ass, you probably are going to have good statistics - see Corey Crawford. This does not mean you are primarily responsible for them. Team defense and systems play a large role in goaltending stats - see Jaroslav Halak and Brian Elliot and Mike Smith last year. See Ilya Bryzgalov previously. Any of those guys nominated for the Vezina lately? Or the Hart? No.

Guys like Rinne and Anderson are carrying their teams. The Ducks would be winning whether they had Fasth in net or Hiller. Would Hiller have won all 8? Maybe not, but I would bet he would've won at least 6 anyway and had a similar stat line.

You're just being intentionally obtuse.
