Conn Smythe Winner?

[John Price]

 

[nucks88]

Well if Dallas wins it should definitely be Demko....

 

[Dr Pepper]

Don Cherry pumping the tires of a Euro goalie?

Never thought I'd see the day.

Also curious as to why he chose that particular photo, as I don't think Bayreuther played a single game with Dallas this year.

At this point, Point is the obvious winner of Conn Smythe, if Tampa wins Stanley Cup. We just dont seem to win a game without him.

Seems kind of backwards thinking. How much would you win if other key players was injured?

We don't know the answer to that. But we know how many we've won without Point.

I think he's closed the gap. Our offense, apparently, lives and dies by him.

 

[Poulin 0n My St1ck]

Tampa -
Point
Vasy
Hedman

Islanders -
Varlamov
Pelech (he'd never win because of numbers but he's been as important as anyone on NYI)

Haven't been able to watch much of the West so will not opine.

+1 for Pelech if the Islanders were to pull off a miracle. His stats aren’t sexy, but he’s our most important player, IMO.

 

[LetsGoIslanders]

Of course I day-dreamed about the Islanders beating the Stars. Then thought about the Conn Smythe. I suck as a fan -- I'm going to be disappointed tomorrow.

I think it would come down to Josh Bailey and Anders Lee.

 

[salsa man]

Dallas:
1 Heiskanen
2 Khudobin
3 Gurianov

Tampa:
1 Point
2 Hedman
3 Kucherov

Isles:
1 Barzal
2 Varly
3 Bailey

 

[JoVel]

We don't know the answer to that.

We kinda know from last year though. When it comes to injuries Hedman is the one player we can't afford to lose and he's like 30 steps above anyone else on that scale.

Isles:
1 Barzal
2 Varly
3 Bailey

Unless Barzal has an amazing final 2 games against Tampa and Stanley Cup finals I don't see him winning. My guess at this point it will be Nelson with some consideration for Bailey or Varly. No defenseman has done much to stand out(not saying they are playing average but Pulock with 10 points in 21 games is the highest scorer from the backend, Pelech who one can argue also has been their top guy only has 7 points)

Leo Komarov, now and forever.

Beauvillier ahead of Barzal and Varlamov, too.

Beauvillier was a beast the first two rounds, better than Barzal. And Varlamov didn't even play game 7. Greiss got them to the ECF.

Well, then we hope he plays further on. Or shall an award be given to someone not playing and proving his worth while absent?

 

[snipes]

Hedman or Heiskanen. With a big series possibly Khudobin.

 

[Krewe]

Hedman has to be the favorite

3rd most goals in the playoffs by a Dman, ever

 

[Hunn]

It's Hedman to lose.

 

[Paul4587]

Hedman is Tampa’s best player by a mile, if they win he’s the clear favourite . Him or Heiskanen/Khudobin depending on who wins.

 

[A1LeafNation]

Hedman

 

[Dr Pepper]

Heiskanen, Khudobin, Benn

Hedman, Point, Kucherov

One of those six, IMO.

Also doesn't feel like a year where it'll go to a player on the losing team so whoever wins, one of those three.

But hey, who knows.

Maybe Kiviranta has some magic left.

 

[Big Cactus]

Torvic Manhed

 

[QJL]

I think it’s down to 4.

1) Hedman
2) Point
3) Khudobin
4) Heiskanen

 

[Hint1k]

If it is Tampa then there are 4 possible players:
Hedman
Kucherov
Point
Vasy

 

[c9777666]

Heiskanen or Hedman

 

[volcom92886]

Anyone know if a Conn Smythe winner has ever been lost to free agency the following season?
