Yes, I know, it just seems a bit silly imo. Either you're the best player in NCAA or you're not. If there's a better goaltender then there's a better goaltender. But there's also some other criteria like leadership, character, etc for the award.....just enough so they can hand it out to whoever they want and have an excuse for not actually giving it out to the actual top player in the country. But whatever.....it's not a big deal in the grand scheme of things. He's a very good goalie who's had a very good career.
