So all the Sedins got was one all-star selection?

That's plain embarrassing.

Never gonna take these awards seriously again that's for sure.

I think Gibson was the best goalie in the tournament. Played really really well. Josi was a treat to watch and he's well deserving of the MVP. The best player of the tournament how ever was Henrik Sedin. Damn was he good.

The fact they played four games and Henrik made it in speak volumes. Henrik was also the slightly better brother, to be fair.

Henrik was better than his brother this time around. Daniel played great as well, but was kind of Hanks little helper in this tournament. Daniel also still look a little bit "snake-biten".

He's not snake bitten, he hasn't been the same since the Duncan Keith elbow.

All through the past season Henrik has carried Daniel. Daniel isn't shooting as much and his shot isn't as lethal.

I think Gibson was the best goalie too.
And I wonder if the fact that he played for a junior team (except for his short AHL stint) didn't play against him in the selection process.

Congrats to the Swiss, hell of an effort. Kontiola could have been the MVP if he won us the bronze game but no. Sedins and Enroth saved the swedes. I wish Finland had consistent top NHL point scorers.

Every Preds fan loves Josi, but he has flown under the radar for most non-NSH/Swiss fans. I think people are starting to realize how good this kid is now.

Probably more that Enroth was a big part of Sweden's gold and that he played over 100 more minutes than Gibson, posted a higher sv%, and had more shutouts.
