Logan Thompson Lands on Second All-Star Team Anyway

Logan Thompson made the NHL’s Second All-Star Team even though he did not finish in the top three for the Vezina Trophy, which is exactly the sort of twist hockey voters love to hand out. The split between individual hardware and all-star recognition can get messy, especially for a goalie who spent the year making life difficult for everybody else. This still counts as a big nod, because it says the league saw enough over the full season to put him among the elite.
