Kendrick 4,741 Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 4 minutes ago, Mr. Power said: Exactly. That is my fear. We are entering a reality where we are just finding bodies to put in GM roles. It isn't that they aren't qualified GM"s, but do they have that same respect/time to put in a thoughtful award vote? If not, then perhaps those people shouldn't be voting. The purpose of the award committee, would be that the Blue Team could publicly select members we all know as having the integrity of awards and the league as the first priority. Again this isn't to call out any other GM's (although I stand by calling out you Eagles, that ballot needs serious justification considering your Helsinki won in 5 games) but you sometimes get the impression a few of the GM"s out there treat award voting similar to award predictions. A copy paste or a quick scan over whose numbers are higher and that is all. Well some GM's don't understand the meaning behind the award or what stats have to be taken with greater weight than others. I for one know there was a GM when I was GM'ing that though Shots Blocked was a huge statistic to determine whether or not a forward should win an award.

You'll never eliminate all the butthurt anyway you do awards This isn't about butthurt though. Give your head a shake. Kendrick, myself, Advantage, do you think any of us have some bias towards Draper winning the award? Denis played for Chris at one point, and all of us like Tyler. It has zero to do with butthurt. A serious award that could have impact on hall of fame implications (especially early into Koponens career) was given to a false candidate who had really no legitimate claim to the award. That sir, is a problem. I don't care how old school or wise you are if you can't see the issue at hand, then get your glasses checked.

Even though almost all of them stat padded against Toronto? There were several other prominent members whose award ballots included 2 Helsinki players and one CGY player, in fact that is what the final ballot ended up looking like. So not only did you go crazy and put 3 undeserving Calgary players on the ballot when most agreed that the one CGY player put on (Denis) was put on just to fill up the ballot and give some recognition to him for his stats, specifically against Toronto. But then you went and voted for Denis (because of course you did.) Your bias isn't the only thing in question, in fact it is irrelevant, because your just one person. The real issue at hand, as the rest of the thread has been discussing is GM's voting without doing any thoughtful look at how players achieved the stats they did. The fact that there was a CGY player on the ballot and GM's simply voted them without considering the fact that CGY won a single game in the finals, is kind of pathetic. As stated in several different ways in this thread. Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/26944-s46-vhl-vhlm-awards-list/page/4/#findComment-299337 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Advantage 2,891 Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Very true. The real concern is that clearly a bunch of GM's aren't really looking at this closely. Also, weird that those ballots have wrong game totals and stuff (CGY played 14, HSK played 10).

What's more concerning is the other 5 Ha, exactly. Bias has always existed in some form or another in voting. It's just isolated, so it's impact is little. As Kendrick and Jardy both stated/agreed with some of us on, the issue is that 5 other GM's didn't pay attention to how the stats were earned and did a blanket quick look at the stats, and voted. A psuedo inactive collecting 13 points in 4 games against Toronto, and 9 in the other 10 in a losing Cup effort and winning playoff MVP is pretty laughable. The fact that you can't see that, regardless of Calgary bias Eagles...says a lot about your perspective on the league. People are entitled to a difference of opinion, but the reason there is a fuss here is because there is literally ZERO argument for anyone from Calgary winning the award, let alone Denis who stat padded.
