Your vote for Steven McDonald Extra Effort Award

[NYSPORTS]

Lundell

 

[I Eat Crow]

Going to go with Panarin here actually.

If he was out during his LOA because of what was speculated he went through, and came back to play lights out like he has been, this shouldn't even be close, and I love Lindgren.

 

[Harbour Dog]

Definitely Lindgren.

I think I would lean toward Panarin before I'd pick Fox.

I think the award is about working hard, not giving an inch, competing night in and night out, and exceeding your own abilities because of it. The kind of guy that makes you proud to be a Rangers fan.

Zucc and Fast were those kinds of guys in VERY different ways. Hank was that kind of guy.

Also, ADAM Blackwell lol

Without seeing what is going on in practice/off ice workouts it is hard as a fan to vote here.

from the on ice play- id say blackwell/smith/lindgren are in consideration

edited to add Buch! He has really worked on his game

The award is fan-voted! What's going on behind closed doors doesn't matter.

What makes it even more embarrassing is that Colin is also my first name.

Made me laugh in real life lol

 

[mike14]

Lindgren, Buch or Fox would be my top 3

 

[Savant]

Voted Lindgren. Fox only other acceptable answer. Better trophy than the Norris anyway.

 

[TheBloodyNine]

How is this a question. It goes to the team MVP - Adam Fox.

 

[Rempe73]

Completely forgot about Buch. Yea him, Fox, or Lindgren.

 

[Irishguy42]

Fox, AINEC

But there are a lot of good candidates

 

[Machinehead]

I voted for Georgiev because some men want to watch the world burn

 

[Synergy27]

It’s obviously Lindgren. Glad to see people here largely agree.

adam blackwell

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Lindgren AINEC

 

[Mike in Houston]

Lindgren is my vote. He's earned it IMO.

 

[Kords]

I voted Lindgren, but Fox is close behind. If Smitty was just a little more consistent I would have no prob giving him my vote. Hell, I wouldn't at all be mad if he even won. He really fills any role he's handed, and willfully at that.

 

[Machinehead]

adam blackwell

????

I'm using that in the next PGT

 

[Edge]

Lindgren always looks like he's been in a street fight.

That's how I voted.

 

[bernmeister]

Shesty narrowly beats out Lindy,
only b'c Shesty did not mail it in and made effort to come back and be 100% ready after nasty injury

otherwise Lindy

 

[bernmeister]

The NHL app on my phone asked me to vote for this a couple week ago and I voted Lindgren. If he doesn't embody "extra effort", I don't know who does.

no ? he gives 111% every nite

 

[Player big P]

What makes it even more embarrassing is that Colin is also my first name.

Your avatar is the first time I've ever seen anyone reference The Life and Times of Tim outside of like, two people I know.

On topic, voting Lindgren.

Bang. Done.

Buchnevich should’ve been in the poll. Carrying this first line while Zibanejad was recovering post-Covid was not a small task and deserved to at least be mentioned. He’d be among top-3 finalists with Lindgren and Fox.
