Who do you think will get Rookie of the Year?

I think it will be close between Crobsy and Ovechkin but Crosby gets my vote. Hes younger, and (IMO) more exciting. Only losing by 4 points in the rookie point race is ok. its only 4 points. 106,102. If it was 10 or more differnece then OK but 4 isn't much. unless it would be like 7-3. When you're up in the 100's 4 points isn't a deciding factor.

It's going to be Oveckin yes, but I voted Phaneuf since he was the only of the three to make any significant difference on his team he gets my vote. :thumbsup:

They've all made signaficant differences.

Thats exactly why Pitsburg and Washington were both at the bottom of the Eastern Conference

Cause both teams sucked. But less than they would if AO and SC weren't there.

Exactly, both teams would be in the exact same place in the east with or with out the two. I would say the same with Phaneuf

wait, sorry, I misread your first post. I thought you said Ovechkin made the biggest difference. But you said Phaneuf.

Sorry. My mistake.

No there I was saying it should be Phaneuf, but Oveckin will likely take it since he's gotten all the media attention and all the stats. Plus all the voters ever do is look at stats.

But Crosby was only 4 points behind. Not much considering how high they both were.

Anybody else wonder why Lundquist was nominated for Vesina but not the Rookie of the year? I dont think that's ever happened before

Because it is an extremely talented rookie feild.
