Hank,
50+ years of watching the NHL and I'll never figure out how they work that crap out.
Kid goalie comes in, saves a season so the Blues can even get to the playoff, then saves them from elimination in every series against supposedly better teams, has excellent GAA and Save%, is the first rookie goalie to win 16 games (and therefor the Cup) and they give the Smythe to the offensive leader.
Everyone (with any smarts, probably even 'flave) knows that defense wins cups and it starts in net.
Binnington got screwed, not to diminish O'Reilly's importance, but Binnington got screwed.
