This picture is exactly what I’d expect Ted Lasso mashed up with the City of Edmonton would like:

How does Stauffer get a vote? It's not like Steinberg or Pinder get votes. So Hrudey really is a closet Oilers fan. I didn't think it was true.

[KootenayFlamesFan]

Hrudey voted for Woodcroft? That's a joke, no?

[scotty2hotty]

The prevailing thought is that Hrudey has a personal dislike Sutter. More than an actually like for Edmonton, no?

Guy sounds like some people here

Take a look in the PGT from Game 5 or the Post Mortem thread declaring Woodcroft a better coach than Sutter

[oldschoolcalgary]

Good for Sutter. Definitely deserving.

Woodcroft did a good job, but the number of games was not a high sample; vote was held before the playoffs iirc

[agulati]

Has the breakdown of how the votes were public yet?

TBH not surprised Woodcroft got 3 votes. A lot of media would tune in for McDavid and they did have a new coach bounce. It’s 3 votes.

I thought the vote included the first two rounds? Though I might be wrong.

That’s insane that Hrudey voted for Woodcroft. Pull him off Flames broadcasts permanently. Wow.

[Heavy Jack]

Looks like the thanks jury is still out on who won the race to start this thread lol!

Seriously though what a year, I still think he and the core if we can keep it has another step up in them which is pretty crazy to consider. Congrats big D, fav hockey coach all time let alone Flames coach.

pretty sure its a regular season award, like all the other awards like the Selke, Rocket, Lindsey, Hart, Vezina and Norris...

otherwise, half the teams and players are automatically at a disadvantage by not making the playoffs

It might be the GM of the year that is voted after the second round.

I think the poster you quoted was joking.

Either way, nobody gave Woodcroft a 1st place vote.
He received a 2nd place vote, and two 3rd place votes.

The Jack Adams Award is an annual award presented by the NHL Broadcasters' Association to "the NHL coach adjudged to have contributed the most to his team's success." The winner is determined by a poll among the association's members at the end of the regular season.

the Jim Gregory (GM) award is also regular season...I think the Conn Smyth is the only individual trophy awarded based on the post season...

the awards and what they are based on can be found here:

Expects everyone to come back a "percentage" better than last offseason and will tweak the systems and specifics at a player training level after the draft and FA.
Just a treat to listen to talking hockey.

Cool. He deserves it.

Though it’d be fun to see the hate smoulder, I shoulda used the green text. There’s no list of who voted for who to my knowledge.

[edn88]

Very happy for Darryl to have won this award. Very deserving of it.

[Voodooman]

I wonder if there is anyone out there who gives less of a #### about this than Darryl himself? I honestly don’t think he gives a flying F. Darryl only measures success on the ice, and he can’t be pleased with how this season ended at all.
