Campbell: 82GP, 53P, -9, 6PIM
Moulson: 82GP, 69P, +1, 6PIM
So after you've looked at the past 11 nominees and winners, and if they give any indication of the requirements needed to win the award, you either need to:
A) Post better stats in 2/3 of the most relevant categories
B) Make it to the Stanley Cup Finals if you HAVEN'T posted better #'s in 2/3 of the most relevant categories OR
C) Have 2.5x less penalty minutes than the next nominee, if you HAVEN'T posted better #'s in 2/3 of the most relevant categories.
So unless Brian Campbell makes it to the Stanley Cup Final, none of the nominees, should win but Jordan Eberle.
So again I'll say it'd be a biggest joke in the history of the award. (Or at the VERY LEAST the past 11 seasons)

Slantos.....i know i said i was done with you, but i can't resist this one. Sorry.......
All you've done here by posting this last bunch of stats is further prove you're level of intelligence towards the NHL and it's awards. Before i go into anything too detailed, lemme give you a simple lesson! The awards are voted for BEFORE the playoffs begin!!! The 3 current "finalists" are actually the "top 3" and votes have already been counted. They call them finalists and not nominees for that reason! So, to say that one of your latest criteria is a Stanley Cup final appearance is possibly the biggest laugh you've provided yet!
I'll post more of a reply soon, i just have to compose myself first as i'm laughing too hard right now. Sorry.... |

His lowest +/- came extremely late in his career, and he was still only a -2, other than that year, he had NEVER been a - player. Yes +/- was effected by his team, but he was the player on that team that was playing the majority of the TOI, ALMOST HIS WHOLE CAREER!!!

Am I HIGH?? Are you retarded? Do you even know what this conversation was about.

I'm SURE their answer would be simple.
JDC
Meaning because Campbell has low PIMs you think he is a poor defencemen
Then I Said
Nicklas Lidstrom has never had more than 50 PIMS in a season and has averaged 25 PIMS per season...so you probably wouldn't want him on your team.
Meaning Lidstrom has had low PIMs his entire career so do you think he's a bad defencemen?
Defence is more about timing and effort than PUNCHING,SLASHING and CROSSCHECKING
You Still don't even get that no one is arguing that Eberle is not deserving they are just arguing that Moulson and Campbell are as deserving to and if Eberle dosn't wn it won't be "THE BIGGEST MISTAKE IN THE HISTORY OF THE AWARD"

I can tell you the biggest joke in the history of this reward.....it was that last post by Slantos! And the punchline was friggin' priceless! The nominees, the voters, the GMs, the Eberle family, they don't care as much as you do. It's a token award, less thought is put into it than any of the others, nobody gives a crap, and it is more arbitrary than any other trophy awarded in professional sports. Love your enthusiasm, but, Jesus Eberle, get over it, kid!
The Oil WILL make the playoffs in 2013. |

This is so typical of most of his other posts. It's a perfect example of a "Slantos Spin".....
1. Make ridiculous claim
2. Have it squashed by others
3. Throw out skewed numbers/ideas/interpretations to support original ridiculous claim
4. Be further squashed.
5. Do research to find support for ORC (original ridiculous claim)
6. Skew numbers/theories to support ORC since what was found didn't help
7. Completely fail when finally presenting argument when it's proven that it was totally wrong
8. Finally admit to failure by either aknowledging it as such, or by disappearing.
Either option on #8 is fine by me.  |

LOL yes I realize nobody is arguing that Eberle shouldn't win... But I just love how your more focused on analyzing my statements than backing up your own, with stats and facts, on how and why you think Campbell and Moulson are as deserving as Eberle.. Just great! Keep at it!!!

What do we need to "back up"? We aren't the one's making ridiuclous claims! We're agreeing that any of the finalists are deserving and it's just not gonna be "the biggest mistake, blah, blah, blah...." regardless of which one of them wins. You really don't get it though do you? If you really think we need to prove anything about what we're saying, "with stats and facts" then you're not intelligent enough to figure out the entire premise of what is being discussed. Sorry, but you really must be dense.  |

If you think Moulson or Campbell "SHOULD WIN" and you believe they are as deserving... You haven't gave any good reasons or stats to back-up those statements on WHY you think they are "JUST as deserving to win the award as Eberle"
N so far the stats n reasons, some people have already given, with the TOI factor, isn't a good reason, as that OBVIOUSLY hasn't weighed as heavily on deciding the winner in the past 11 years, as points, +/-, and PIM's... So I mean find other stats categories, that have been as relevant as those 3, in deciding the winner of the award in the past 11 years, where Moulson and Campbell have posted better #'s than Eberle.

Actually I did that on page 1, this is an exact copy
Here is an argument for the candidates
Campbell:
-2nd in points and assists for defencemen
-Played all 82 games
-Only visited the penalty box 3 times
-No penalties in the last 25 games and only one since the All-Star Break
-would be the first defencemen since the 50's to win the Byng
-Team made the playoffs
-Played more minutes than other candidates, defencemen are more prone to taking penalties
Eberle:
-Only 2nd season in the NHL
-Had a 31 game stretch with no penalties
-Only 10 pims
-Career highs in goals (34), assists (42), points (76) and power-play goals (10).
Moulson
-With six penalty minutes, he became the first player since Paul Kariya in 1996-97 to score at least 30 goals and have single-digit penalty minutes.
-post career-bests of 36 goals -- 10th in the League -- 33 assists and 69 points
-Moulson is one of 8 players with 30 goals in each of the last 3 years. Here are the other 7:
Stamkos, Ovechkin, Marleau, Kovalchuk, Iginla, Ryan, Kessel
Then there is also a wildcard in receiving this trophy
"to the player adjudged to have exhibited the best type of sportsmanship and gentlemanly conduct combined with a high standard of playing ability"
Now I haven't watched these players enough to know but "sportsmanship and gentlemanly conduct " is not measured by any STAT, maybe one of the candidates chirps at the refs while the other one picks up the opposing players equipment after a fight and brings it over to him.
Either way to say "if Eberle doesn't win, that will be the biggest mistake in the history of the award". Is an overstatement if not a miss-statement.

Campbell:
-2nd in points and assists for defencemen (AGAIN, Eberle has more points than him)
-Played all 82 games (If you look at the past 11 winners, you'll see that hasn't weighed as heavily as P, +/-, PIM)
-Only visited the penalty box 3 times (Yes, that's 6 PIM)
-No penalties in the last 25 games and only one since the All-Star Break (And that matters HOW???)
-would be the first defencemen since the 50's to win the Byng (AGAIN, that matters HOW???)
-Team made the playoffs (That's his TEAM, not his personal stats)
-Played more minutes than other candidates, defencemen are more prone to taking penalties (AGAIN, TOI hasn't effected the winner as heavily as P, +/-, PIM)
Eberle:
-Only 2nd season in the NHL (Yup, SO?)
-Had a 31 game stretch with no penalties (Yup, so?)
-Only 10 pims (Yes that's his PIM's)
-Career highs in goals (34), assists (42), points (76) and power-play goals (10) (Yes that equals his points)
Moulson
-With six penalty minutes, he became the first player since Paul Kariya in 1996-97 to score at least 30 goals and have single-digit penalty minutes. (Yes, so?)
-post career-bests of 36 goals -- 10th in the League -- 33 assists and 69 points (Yes, that's his points)
-Moulson is one of 8 players with 30 goals in each of the last 3 years. Here are the other 7:

"to the player adjudged to have exhibited the best type of sportsmanship and gentlemanly conduct"
Ummm first off I'm pretty sure PIM's would be a descent stat to look at too see who's gentlemanly... Second, ALL of the nominees over the past 11 years have been gentlemanly.. And unless the refs are voting NOONE WILL NO WHO CHIRPS!!
"combined with a high standard of playing ability"
I'm pretty sure whoever has high points and a good +/- would be a good stats to look at to judge that part of the award.
So maybe I'll say it again, maybe look at some of the stat categories that have greatly effected the outcome and the winner of the award, where Moulson and Campbell have better #'s than Eberle. Because I can't find any, but keep looking,

Slantos you can say "who cares?" or "ya so?" all you want, im giving you reasons why someone who votes on this may consider each candidate.
- Maybe some voters are like you and say Eberle is leading in 2/3 of the "most relevant stats".
- Maybe some voters take into account that it is Eberle's 2nd season and therefore he will have a chance to win in the future and this is not his year.
- Maybe some voters think that because it's Eberle's 2nd season that it is extra impressive and he should win
- Maybe some voters think Campbell being 2nd in points for all defencemen is better than Eberle being 16th overall in points for all forwards
- Maybe some Voters think Moulson's goal totals are more impressive that Eberles point totals
- Maybe some voters take into account Time on ice
- Maybe some voters think a Defencemen winning the Lady Byng would be impressive/interesting
- Maybe some voters think being part of a playoff team is a sure sign of playing at a high standard of skill
- Maybe some voters don't look at stats and just vote how the feel. ie. They are a fan of one of the players or one of the teams a player plays on
- Maybe some voters only take PIMS into account
And on and on and on and on and on.
Do you understand? There is more than one way of justifying your vote or considering the winner for this award so to say one guy is going to win and if he doesn't it will be "THE BIGGEST MISTAKE IN THE HISTORY OF THE AWARD" is a OVERSTATEMENT.
Now I understand your an Oiler fan and have a man crush on Eberle but try to look at this through an objective lens for 2 seconds.
Let's be honest there not as big a difference in this years candidates stats as some previous years.
Between Moulson and Eberle there is a
a difference of 3 in +/-
a difference of 7 in points
a difference of 4 in PIMS
nothing in the double digits.

I was trying to find the proper words to say what Slozo just said. Well done! Bag of pucks. Hehehehe
It's awesome that in the heat of the playoffs and as other award nominees are being reported (Hart, GM of the year) that people are stuck on the Byng.
Unreal.
Daniel Alfredsson is the MVP of the universe. All hail the Ottawa Senators!!!!! |

Hey, i resent that! I've yet to get angry! Frustrated? YUP! Angry? Nah.....
Beans, the only thing i find "unreal" is the delusional state of mind this Slantos character must be in to come up with some of the crazy stuff he has. It's gotten to the point of me actually looking forward to his next post(s) just to see if he can actually say something more ridiculous than the last.
Let's face it, this thread's only as long as it is because of the ridiculous claims being made! I'm sure you'd see the Hart thread getting more play if some idiot were to start stating that Lundqvist should win over Malkin because he has more saves?  |
