Everything that I have read from that season makes me believe it was close battle between Liut and Gretzky. Hart trophy voting was close. TSN had anual voting among players. Gretzky won it narrowly. I believe they shared hockey news player of the year title. I don´t believe that there were any conspiracies behind this. Someone made a great post about this in some other thread while ago. That the players just didn´t see Gretzky as a very complete player. Partly due how Oilers played him he was seen as one dimensional...
I have always liked Liut´s later mask too. I also like the decision of keeping it complitely white. Kind of ugly beautiful .
I also thought he had a great mask as well. The one he had in Cincinnati and St. Louis looked sharp but by the time he got to Hartford the mask he had wasn't so nice looking.
