Calgary Flames news and notes from the 2022 NHL Awards voting

The 2022 NHL Awards season has come and gone, and now we can take a gander at how many Calgary Flames won awards or were on various ballots.

Let’s dive in!

The Professional Hockey Writers Association had 195 ballots submitted for the trophies, 192 for the all-star teams and 196 for the all-rookie team. (The NHL Broadcasters Association voted for the Jack Adams and the league’s general managers voted for the Vezina Trophy. Neither group released individual ballot information. There was no voting breakdown released by the NHLPA for the Ted Lindsay Award.)

Six members of Calgary-area media submitted ballots as part of the PHWA: Eric Duhatschek (The Athletic), Eric Francis (Sportsnet), Wes Gilbertson (Postmedia), Darren Haynes (Canadian Press), Hailey Salvian (The Athletic) and myself.

Johnny Gaudreau finished fourth overall and was named on 168 on 195 ballots. He received three first-place votes [from Stephen Whyno of the Associated Press, Craig Button of TSN, and Ken Wiebe of Sportsnet].

Matthew Tkachuk received a single fifth-place vote [from Marc du Foy of Le Journal de Montreal] and finished tied for 14th.

Chris Tanev received a single fifth-place vote [from Thomas Drance of The Athletic] and finished tied for 15th.

He also received one third-place vote at left wing [from Pat Hickey of the Montreal Gazette] and finished tied for ninth. (If he had gotten that third-place vote at right wing, he wouldn’t have finished any higher.)
