There's a lot of candidates this year with leading scorer Colin Chaulk and Leo Thomas, but And the goaltenders have to be the co-MVPs this year. Four rookie D-men, a team that couldn't score for the first 75 percent of the season, but they showed up every night.

LEO
He has carried this team this season. He has been the one consistant guy night in and night out. He has given the effort, played a total game on both ends of the ice, he plays physical, and he has the stats. He is the "general" on what has ended up being the best line on the team.....which might be the 2nd best line in the league....and he has done it with a linemate who had a rough start, who now is hot, and another linemate, that has admitted to struggling with effort at times.
LEO has been the man this year.
I have earned a ton of respect for him as a hockey player this season. He has been MVP-like.
Haun could easily be MVP too, just give him the Goalie award....because he has been our #1 for the most part, Bouch has been great too, it has taken both of them for the team to be good.....but I don't think just one of them could have done this job this year. Both are great...
Without LEO, we could be playing for 4th place tonight.
I think they will probably give it to the goalies as Blake suggests; but think that Leo has been alot of fans choice for MVP this year...
Leo because of everything he's done, plus he does not get to take off-nights based on where the team is playing. He doesn't get the "he's good on the road" or "he's good at home" title. He's just good and doesn't care where he plays.
I say PC gets 75% of the MVP vote but award still goes to Leo!
Haun!
There obviously should be a fan's choice award.. I too thought LEO was MVP.
Chaulk isn't a bad choice, I just think Leo was a bit more deserving.
Gotta be Leo! Period. Incredible work ethic. Unparalleled gifts on the ice.
