If Bruins Make the Playoffs Does Pastrnak Get Hart Consideration?

[Score08]

Isn’t the Hart the most valuable to HIS team?
If pasta isn’t playing for the bruins this year, where would the bruins be in the standings?

Is there a recent example of a 6th/7th best scorer getting a Hart nomination? Hall won in 2018 but that wasn't a particularly great year for forwards. If Pasta was closer to the leaders he could get a mention.

No. It's more like the player who gets a lot of hype by leading the scoring race or having a really amazing season while also being an important member of their team. Think Matthews or McDavid hart wins vs Taylor Hall's win. Sometimes it is like you say but not recently.

But that’s not the definition of the hart.

If he scores 40 goals in a month and gets them in, sure.

Voters don't seem to care..

Then get rid of the voters that can’t seem to follow the criteria of the award. Either follow the criteria or create another award. It clearly states the ‘most valuable to his team’, it’s not the’ biggest fan boy award that scores the most goals’.

Ok, but Pastrnak is in on 45% of his teams goals.....this is still behind both MacKinnon and Draisaitl
