Default Conacher MVP

Who's probably the smallest MVP in the history of any hockey league, going back to mites?

Default Congrats, But Wanting More

Congrats to Conacher. The ADs are sweeping up the hardware right now. However, there is one last piece of hardware I'd like to see come our way, and that's the Calder Cup.

Win that and we've run the table.

ROY and MVP in the same season, and he was never drafted. Incredible.

These other awards are nice, but that's the one I'm hoping for.

I like how Conacher is the ROY and MVP but a 2nd team All-Star... ha.

Default Congrats Also

In addition to Conacher, congrats need to go the the scouting staff who found him. And also Tyler Johnson. Pure genius.

Johnson was a much easier pick than Conacher, Rember Johnson lead the WHL last year in scoring (or was really close?). Pretty amazing he has done so well, hope he continues the trend next year in the NHL.

A legitimate question, actually. I was talking about it last night with my gf and she asked that same question. I know the MVP is voted by the coaches, players, and media, but is the Team All Star awards voted by just one of those groups or perhaps the GMs?

To echo Randy, props to the scouting staff as well.
