Decided to start keeping track out of curiosity. This is Lindgren’s third helmet win, which is the most out of the team. Also, it has only been awarded to goalies four times despite the Kraken winning 9 games where the goalie had a save percentage over .950. It has been awarded to either a defenseman or a goalie 13 out of 22 times, which is disproportionately high compared to forwards. Notably, Marchment never received the helmet, and Stephenson, Beniers, and Tolvanen have all not yet been given the helmet despite all being in the top 5 for scoring on the team

Evans is the only defenseman who hasn’t received the helmet, even Mahura and Fleury have.
I just knew when Joey got the helmet this last time he was absolutely going to find any reason to give it to Gru because Gru was snubbed so many times! Fortunately he made it very easy by being a stud yet again the next game.

additional stats for anyone curious
How has Kakko never gotten the helmet or belt last year is beyond me.
Really surprised Tolvy hasn’t gotten it yet.
surprise Matty hasn’t gotten it yet, hes been playing really well lately
I predict Stevie will get it when he comes back. Having a kid > scoring goals
New to hockey this season, is getting the helmet their way of saying “player of the game”?
