McDavid easily , Bob has been good but he's not been a god or anything , he's not the only reason the panthers are winning lol

17.3 GSAx in 12 games is pretty much god like. When Vasilevkiy won his Conn Smythe, he had a 12.8.

McDavid would make the Canes one of the most complete teams of all time. Easy choice there.

So you’d take Makar?

This kind've poll generally isn't a fair comparison because McDavid would be replacing a 4th liner and Bob would be replacing an average goalie generally.

Regardless, it's McDavid. Pretty sure the guy could put up 100 points in 20 games and he would still get blamed if the Oilers don't win the Cup.

Yeah I don't get people denying how great his performance has been. Obviously he's not better than McDavid in general, but is a goaltending performance like this more likely to help carry a team on a deep run than the best offensive performances a single player like McDavid can provide? Well that answer is pretty obvious considering Edmonton has two such players and they can't get past lesser teams than Florida now and Montreal a few seasons ago.

Infact not only is great goaltending a pre-requisite to going on a deep run but it's also pretty much a given that you can't win a Stanley Cup without solid goaltending.

You would never bet on a single goalie over an elite player like McDavid at the start of a season though because even rookie goalies have put up performances like this whereas elite goalies aren't always that consistent from one season to another. Bobrovsky has obviously been crap for a while now but he's clearly recaptured his Vezina trophy winning form.

Obviously long term there is no question but if your talking about the playoffs this year Bob has been better.

Is this thread, like, a performance art piece?

 

[Hockeyholic]

If Florida had McDavid with Lyon in net, Florida is already out.

Florida is already close to winning the cup with BoB and no McDavid.

BoB is answer here.

 

[dirtydanglez]

mcdavid.

this is going to be a landslide.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Is this a satire thread ?

Unfortunately, I think he is being dead serious, which is scary.

 

[Romang67]

Im glad none of y'all are GMS

There's a reason Bobrovsky about to go to the SCF and McDavid hasn't even gotten close to that.

Why did you even start this thread with a poll if you just wanted people to say Bobrovsky?

 

[SheldonJPlankton]

Taking Bob.

The Habs set the standard that playing Toronto early and having a hot goalie was the pathway to a SCF appearance. Florida then submitted irrefutable proof.

No, having a Canada division was the pathway.

Lopsided result.
