It’s the second time in Gaudreau’s career that he’s finished fourth in Hart voting. Gaudreau appeared on 168 of the 195 ballots submitted. He led the balloting in fourth and fifth-place votes. Flames forward Matthew Tkachuk received a single fifth-place vote and was tied for 14th in overall voting.
Gaudreau finished tied for second in the NHL in points with 115 points during the regular season – tying with Florida’s Jonathan Huberdeau – behind only Edmonton’s Connor McDavid.
