Playoff MVP So Far

Earlier in the second round, I picked Ryan Getzlaf of the Anaheim Ducks as the playoff MVP. At the time he was leading the playoffs in points. He has been passed by Alexander Ovechkin, who has a significant lead in goals (10 to 4 right now with Anaheim still playing in the third period of game six). Ovechkin leads the playoffs in points with 20 and is tied for leads in goals (with 10) and +/- (+11). This comes after a regular season where he has likely won his second straight Hart Trophy. Ovechkin has established himself as the best player in the NHL today. He is likely the most dominant player the NHL has seen since Mario Lemieux. Enjoy watching him in in his prime; it will be something hockey fans talk about for a long time.

Ovy is certainly a great player. Too bad he doesn’t even have half the class Mario Lemieux did.

Not sure how you think Ovechkin has been better than Crosby. He’s totally invisible in the defensive zone.
