I’m hoping Ovechkin can win it again, and I’m holding out hope he can hit the 50 mark. But that said, the way he’s been scoring the last couple of months, I think Laine will end up winning it.
And how crazy is it that Eric Staal is in contention?? He was considered by most to be washed up following his brief stint with the Rangers, and people questioned the Wild giving him a 3 year deal. Last year he was excellent, but still found himself unprotected in the expansion draft. This year he has taken his play to yet another level. Staal is amazingly on pace for his best season in 12 years (and 2nd best of his career). |

The Art Ross race is an interesting one as well. Kucherov? Malkin? McDavid? Giroux? MacKinnon?
I’m hoping Malkin wins it, but have a feeling McDavid will find a way to end up on top. Hoping that isn’t the case though. I’d be happy to see MacKinnon win as well. If he hadn’t missed so much time with injuries a couple weeks ago, he would likely be on top right now. Brad Marchand is another who would be in contention if not for injuries. The 3 guys from the Halifax area (Crosby, MacKinnon, Marchand) are certainly making NS proud!
These races will add some drama and make the finish to the season that much more exciting! |

McDavid no question. I would have answered this on the 12th if I had noticed this. He is just tearing up the league now that the team is finally firing on all cylinders and healthy. No question that next year this team will be back fighting for the playoffs too. Can you win MVP and miss the playoffs, that the greater question. |
