Won’t happen. He has the same problem that Jon Cooper and Mike Sullivan have had for years. Expectations.

Jack Adams always goes to the coach whose team was unexpectedly good. The Avalanche are expected to be good, so Bednar won’t get votes.

Honestly, Bednar suffers from success.
The team is too good, it is EXPECTED for the Avs to be in contention.
Clearly, it wouldn’t happen without Bednar, but him being good, pushes him away from the award.
Imo.

Coaches of bad teams who end up being good win that. Not good teams who are good..
I am not saying that is right, that is just how it works.

If he wasn’t in the convo last year for winning the division with a team that was basically a skating hospital he never will. The team has too many star players for award voters to give him the credit he deserves
