Price, Kessel and Karlsson would be in there I would think.

 

[maclean]

Will these get announced now after the medals are awarded?

 

[Systemfel]

I believe so. Or here: http://sochi2014.iihf.com/men/news/

[Systemfel]

Media selected Selänne as the MVP.

 

[Frank the Tank]

Nice symbolic gesture for Selanne. I don't mind it because no player really stood out from the pack.

 

[MildlyAwesome]

Best goaltender was Price yet Lundqvist was on the all-star team?

Oh well. Doesn't matter since Canada played great and the gold is the real prize!

And honestly, who will argue that Selanne is MVP? Its Teemu Selanne.

 

[ScottyBowman]

I think Price should have been the MVP

 

[Fish on The Sand]

How does Lundqvist get named to the all star team and Selanne mvp? What a joke.

 

[Malkinburgh]

Fitting for Teemu!

 

[maclean]

Interesting choices. Happy for Karlsson anyhow

 

[DisgruntledGoat*]

Typical that Canada wins but is barely represented on these.

Weber should be there over Karlsson.

 

[chunkylover53]

Selanne? I guess for the sentimental value...but really?

I like him as much as the next guy, but it should have been either Karlsson or Doughty.

 

[Shrimper]

Not to bothered about Selanne as he played exceptionally well for someone his age.

But how can Price be the best goaltender and Lundqvist on the All-Star team?

 

[ScottyBowman]

How does Lundqvist get named to the all star team and Selanne mvp? What a joke.

I know. You know this is European Media bias. I'm American and think that Price should be best goalie and MVP.

 

[Raging Bull]

Only one you can really argue is MVP.

 

[Account Terminated]

I have no problem with Selanne earning MVP honors over Carey Price.

Lundqvist over Price on the all-star team when Price is named best goaltender of the tournament though...

 

[Trap Jesus]

Selanne winning the MVP is absolutely ludicrous.

 

[EssendonBombers]

Love Selanne, but that's a joke. The MVP isn't the life achievement award.

 

[BigZ65]

Karlsson...

Guess the IIHF aren't into fancystats yet.

 

[Systemfel]

Best goaltender was Price yet Lundqvist was on the all-star team?

It's not the same voters for those things.

 

[McCullogh]

Granlund is a suprise for me in the all-star team.

And I would have picked Price over Lundqvist between the pipes.

Doughty, Karlsson and Kessel I think was locks.

 

[Finnsane]

I guess Selänne got some life-time award...? Quite unexpected
