He's okay I guess.

 

[Johnny GODreau]

Most points in the month gets you 2nd star of the month.

Who cares? Besides, Hammond was/is the reason why Ottawa was even in a playoff spot at one point. It's star of the month anyways, those don't have as much value as you think.

Nobody can name the stars of the month from last month or the month before, without searching it. The names go out one ear and out the other.

In the end, he is being recognized for his play. 1-3 is close anyways. They are interchangeable.

Of course Hammond was going to be first and undeniably deserved it. 10-1-1 and a 2.09 GAA. Easiest selection they'll have all year, only reason Ottawa is in the playoff hunt.

Hudler's lucky to be over Dubnyk, but it's close.

But some wines don't age well.

Why are people complaining about this? Hammond earned it.

I agree.

Gaudreau certainly isn't the first and won't be the last to be robbed by the Hamburglar.

I hope Hudler is around for a very long time, he's a RW and an argument can easily be made that he's top 5 at his position for the entire league after this season. I also think given the style he plays that he's going to be effective well into his 30's.

Up until this year, I wasn't big on Hudler. For whatever reason, I never saw him as a 'core' guy, but man has my opinion changed. Not only how he performs on the ice, but how he acts off the ice (I always laugh at that gif of him delivering Johnny a pizza). Reminds me of Stajan; a veteran guy who can keep things light and funny. I hope he's around for awhile.

1st stars get food delivered to them while 2nd stars do the delivering.

What?

Calgary wouldn't have had the month of March they did if it wasn't for Jiri. How many points was he ahead of the 2nd place point-getter?

3rd stars cook the food?
