I still think he should have won last year.....just saying.
How does this guy do, what he has done, with what he has? His best forward has been out since game 6. His best, and the league's best defenceman has been out for a month and the leagues best goalie is out. He has a couple of aging stars in Alfredsson and Gonchar, but they continue to win.
Tonight they are out shooting Boston and are tied after 2 periods.
He was denied the award last year to a deserving Hitchcock, but not this year. Can he?

no doubt in my mind that he wins it this year...no one else is even close

League has been running continuously since 1997-98
They will have to make the playoffs which I'm sure they will do. Once they do it will jut be a formality.
I agree whit you Ottawa lost Spezza, Michalek and KARLSSON and the SENS still win but don't forgot Therien I hate the Canadien but they are 2nd in the east and they finish last last year, you can had Quenniville whit 24 games whitout a lost to start the season and Boudreau should be in conversation for the Jack Adam...

Noun
(slang, idiomatic) 1. A person who habitually corrects or criticizes the language usage of others, especially in situations where it is unnecessary, e.g. an informal conversation.

Sen's first line
- centred by an unproven 2nd liner (Turris) who had a 21 game goaless drought
- a 40 year old who was hedging retirement for the past 2 seasons (Alfie)
- a european rookie (Silfverberg)
The defence is being led by a
- 38 year old guy that was being booed out of town last year (Gonchar) = now team leading scorer
- a prospect who struggled in the AHL last year, nearly had a career (& life) ending injury (Wiercioch) = 4th leading scorer
Goaltending
- with Anderson hurt using two goalie prospects who had a combined 30 starts before this season (Bishop 17, Lehner 13).
The entire roster is made up of borderline no name NHLers and AHLers/rookies.
Erik Karlsson was leading the team in goals (6) still on March 12th and only passed last week. He's been out since Feb 13th.

Very well said.
Imagine what this guy would do with teams like,
-Washington (Ovechkin, Backstrom, Green, Carlson, Ribero)
-Philadelphia (Giroux, Voracek, Shenn, Read, Hartnell)
-Tampa (Stamkos, St. Louis, Lecavalier, Purcell, Hedman)
-NY Rangers (Nash, Gaborick, Richards, DelZ otto, Stepan, Lundqvist)
-Edmonton (Hall, RNH, Eberle, Schultz, Yakovpov, Gagner)
-Carolina (Staal X2, Semin, Skinner, Jokinen, Tlusty, Ward)
-Colorado (Stasney, Duschene, Parenteau, Landeskog, Johnson)
-Calgary (Iginla, Tanguay, Cammalleri, Bouwmeester)
-San Jose (Thornton, Marleau, Pavelski, Couture, Boyle, Havlat)
...all of whom are below Ottawa in the standings.
Yah, the talent level of some of those teams is why I've subconsciously hoped for them to tank for a Drouin or Mackinnon. However, they have a high compete level (even year they missed on Landeskog).
Heck, our former first round bust Jim O'Brien! who is essentially a PK/4th line guy, was the player tied in scoring with EK most of the season.
