It's easy to determine if it was a "part failure" or a "winterizing failure"...
Just look at the "freeze damage indicator" (bulge on the side of the valve) or the "pushed out rear disc" as evidence of ice inside the valve. If those two parts of the valve are undamaged, then it's a worn out valve. But, if either is present, blame the winterizing process....
Why bother ???? Next year, when winterizing, the knowledge of what happened will help protect the toilet a bit better "for future winter conditions"...
Here's what to look for:
