A couple of key stats you're missing...
Corsi against per 60:
Kesler: 55.82
Koivu: 54.00
Backlund: 50.77
Bergeron: 44.16
Shots against per 60:
Koivu: 28.18
Kesler: 27.68
Backlund: 26.10
Bergeron: 23.18
Two things to take away from this.
First, yes, there's a good basis for suggesting that Backlund deserved a nomination.
Second... Bergeron is a God. He should win every year forever. They should just re-name the trophy after him.
