Which players do you think will be named top forward, top defenseman and top goalie?

Who will be named tournament MVP?


My predictions:

Top Forward: Brayden Schenn
Top Defenseman: Dmitri Orlov
Top Goalie: Jack Campbell

MVP: Brayden Schenn

If Canada wins Gold...

F-Schenn (Although if Johansen does more then Schenn this game you could easily make an argument for him, he has been more dominant then Schenn in games against tough teams and the games that matter, pretty much all schenns points came in round robin)
D- Orlov
G-Visentin (numbers speak for themselves)

If Canada doesnt win Gold....

Change Goalie to Jack Campbell

I could see either Tarasenko or Kuznetsov sneaking in and winning top forward if either has an outstanding game tonight and Russia wins gold, but otherwise I agree with this.

Why is everyone picking Campbell as Goalie? I've been to every single game and I can honestly say no goalie has impressed me as much as Benjamin Conz. Just look at how much shots he faced per game. He kept Switzerland in every game. They had no business being close in a lot of those games. I can't say the same for Campbell, who wasn't really tested until the Semis.

For me it's either Conz or the Russian goalie (sorry, I can't find the correct spelling of his name).
I may give the edge to the Russian goalie since he got them to the gold medal game.
But I have zero issues with Conz.

Yeah I can see that Schenn has been putting up massive numbers but in my book Ryan Johansen has been the best forward on team Canada and in the entire tournament. Never saw him until this tournament and he impressed me alot.

Defender and goalie is a crapshoot, it all depends on how it goes in these two last games imo

Schenn, MVP as well.

Orlov

Campbell

They're all pretty easy picks, and barring any really great/terrible performances today I don't see this changing. Orlov has the best chance to not get picked however.

Forward - Schenn...barring a miraculous performance by Johansen/Tarasenko/Kuznetsov (the only other forwards even in the conversation, really)

Defense - Orlov or Ellis...I think it'll be Orlov but again, it could hinge on tonight

Goalie - Conz, but I wouldn't be surprised if Campbell got it. Depending on tonight, Shikin could sneak in.

Goallie: Ortio / Campbell (Don't think Visinten has a chance since he has only played 3 games so far and one of those was against Norway)
Defenseman: Orlov:
Forward: Schenn

Why is Visentin even being mentioned? The only opponent that posed a threat was the US, which didn't show up, and had little to no scoring opportunities. I think Conz is most deserving.
