Playoff MVP

During the first round of the playoffs I picked Evgeni Malkin as the playoff MVP, but there has been another player who has passed him.  Ryan Getzlaf of the Anaheim Ducks is my current choice as playoff MVP.  He has the lead in assists and points, with 10 and 13 respectively.  In fact he has as many assists as any other player has points in the playoffs so far.

A lot of credit has been given to goaltender Jonas Hiller for the Anaheim Ducks defeat of the San Jose Sharks are current 1-1 tie with the Detroit Red Wings, but I think Getzlaf has been even more important.  He has been the player who has made the Ducks offence succeed.

Getzlaf has some great skill. He’s really showing what kind of player he is in these playoff games, very impressed.
