Gustavsson has struggled with heart issues for his entire career, most recently in January, when he was taken to the hospital mid-game for an elevated heart rate. Despite this issue, he's made 22 starts this year and holds a .911 save percentage, along with a serviceable 11-7-1 record. There really is no one else on the Bruins who comes close to exemplifying the qualifications for this award.
