Nylander won the scoring with 18 points. Two more than kucherov. (In two less games)

 

[that is unfortunate]

Nylander won the scoring with 18 points. Two more than kucherov.

The awards are voted upon, they've always been a bit weird (Kucherov being named best forward despite not making the all-star team for example)

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

Nylander was better than Kucherov. It looks weird that the so called best forward didn't make the all star team

 

[Christien]

Hronek is a special player, going to be good for Detroit in the future

Mantha and Hronek were absolute monsters this tournament. The future is looking bright in Hockeytown. I will be dreading when the Red Wings are good again.

Lankinen got snubbed hard here

Finland doesn’t make the final without him while Russia was a talented team regardless. Stone shouldn’t have been MVP

 

[ijuka]

I guess they value racking up points in meaningless games at groups over scoring clutch game winners in decisive games.

Lankinen got snubbed hard here

Finland doesn’t make the final without him while Russia was a talented team regardless. Stone shouldn’t have been MVP

Who else? He won Canada two almost lost games.

 

[king89]

This is some bullshit. Nylander should be over Kucherov. Lankinen over Stone. Anttila over everyone

 

[ColbyChaos]

Who else? He won Canada two almost lost games.

.942 sv% on a team that had 0 NHL players (1 if you count Jokiharju and his 30 GP)

Held Canada and Russia to a combined 1 goal

Canada underpreforming against weaker teams doesn’t mean stone should have been MVP

 

[Stubu]

Was Lehtonen really that good? I liked his play throughout but the selection is a bit surprising.
