Now if a rookie goalie only plays 30 games or something then I can see that being an argument against him.

But if he gets to 50 games then that shouldn't be a strike. Thats pretty much "starter" volume on most teams nowadays
No it isnt.

If he was skating and moving his legs that whole time, then sure.

But that is not a comparable.

Its just a disadvantage to winning a trophy against skaters that is baked into the position. You dont play as much....you dont get seen as much.

Whether it be the Calder or Hart....G's have a higher bar to clear.

Not arguing he isnt worthy of it, but pointing out historically how it goes and moreso why.
