I agree with you, je is playing Vezina caliber hockey as well. His numbers are phenomenal across the board. If CO can take say the Presidents Trophy then Grubauer is most assuredly in the Hart discussion IMO. If he falls I think it is between Vasilivsky, McDavid and Draisaitl are the favorites though if Chicago somehow makes the playoffs I think Kane is in the picture as well because he has great stats and frankly most of the offense flows through him, he is involved in 60% of Hawks goals and up the with the best in the league statically - basically the Hawks have been riding him into even fighting for a playoff slot. That is extremely valuable team with 6 or 7 rookies starting each night often including the goalie plus missing key guys like Toews, Shaw, Nylander for the year and losing Seabrook to retirement due to injuries - lot of big game vets missing that always lead and Kane upped his game enough that that band of kids is a threat to even the best teams.
