Popular Post Eli4sPetterss0n Posted November 7, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted November 7, 2019 (edited) Binnington believes he deserved Calder: There's a 'bad taste in my mouth' Brandon Maron 6h ago Joe Puetz / National Hockey League / Getty Jordan Binnington may have helped the St. Louis Blues take home the Stanley Cup last season, but he believes he should have taken home the Calder Trophy too. "There's a little bit of that bad taste in my mouth about the outcome last year," Binnington said after beating the Vancouver Canucks Tuesday, according to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch's Jim Thomas. "But he's (Elias Pettersson) a talented player, so it's good going up against some of the best." Binnington finished second in voting for the Rookie of the Year award, losing out to Pettersson. The Blues goalie earned 18 first-place votes to the Canucks star's 151. "Yeah," Binnington added when asked if he thinks he deserved to win the honor. "(But) they’ve got a good young team and some elite talent. He’s one of those guys, so it’s a lot of fun." The two players aren't showing signs of slowing down in their sophomore seasons. Binnington sports an 8-2-3 record paired with a .921 save percentage and 2.43 GAA. Pettersson has six goals and 20 points in 15 games. https://www.thescore.com/nhl/news/1873828/binnington-believes-he-deserved-calder-theres-a-bad-taste-in-my-mouth --------- Not to try to cause drama, but what a sore loser. Esp Considering the votes weren't even close if I remember correctly.

Popular Post Boest-er Posted November 7, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted November 7, 2019 I may be reading this wrong, but it doesn't look like he's putting down Elias. Just saying it would have been nice to win the Calder and cup in his first year. 2 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post apollo Posted November 7, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted November 7, 2019 Jordan needs to be put in his place. The only explanation is that he's a delusional psychopath. A 25 year old who played 32 regular season games thinks he deserves the calder?! The disgrace in the first place was the NHL even letting him be a finalist... the guy had 32 games and is 5 years older than everyone he was competing with. That's like me in 12th grade, going to the local elementary school and fighting 7th grades for their lunch money. Hey I'm 5 years older but let me take your lunch money 4 2 19 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post khay Posted November 7, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted November 7, 2019 Is 25 year old player with 5 years of pro experience a rookie? I would actually ask Binnington that question. Do you see yourself as a rookie? They should put a limit on the number of hockey played as a professional to be considered for the Calder trophy. If you have 3+ years of professional experience in any profession, I don't think you should be considered a rookie in that profession. 2 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IBatch Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 Thanks for sharing. Reminds me of Murray getting scored on a bunch of times and BB getting a hat trick his rookie year. Doughtyton should just be a good loser and enjoy his cup ring. How many Conn Smythes did Roy have by the time he was the same age? Two or pretty close to it. And both those teams had no business in the final let alone winning the cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boston should have won in 2013. Not fair that Chicago won 3 times in 6 years. Markus Naslund should have won the Art Ross. Trevor Linden should never have been traded. Mark Messier should have never signed with Vancouver I can go on and on. Binnington should be happy with the Stanley Cup as many would trade all their trophies for that cup alone.

News flash , a player believes in himself. Wow . At first I thought the same but the reporter just brought the topic up. Binnington said losing the Calder left a "bad taste". Also explains why he was playing a level up when he was playing against us. I must admit, he played lights out against us last game and also in Game 7 of the finals.
