If Ek continues to progress like he has every single year of his NHL career, there is no question in my mind he will eventually be a Selke finalist in the coming years. Look at the names that he’s in the same category with.

he could be a winner on a cup year team like Barkov this year. let’s get there
Kevin Fiala with the 5th place vote.
Sure.
Ek would have finished higher if the Wild would have done likewise, IMO.
I’m glad Ekky is getting the love he deserves somewhere, even if it’s just the top ten votes for an award. I feel like he’s wildly underrated in the NHL as a whole. He was a beast for Sweden in IIHF this year.
when hintz isnt even top 3 u know this voting is not something to take seriously lol
If you remove the horrendous PK numbers, he was right in line with Barkov for metrics, 10th is a disservice frankly when a guy like Matthews didn’t even see the ice on the PK. JEE was a warrior this season, another year like that with a bit more team success and he will be in the running IMO.
He will start climbing up the rankings if he gets his faceoff percentage up around 52%
