YES! the players that score in the shootout do not get a goal added to there stats, as of the other night Huet of the Habs and Auld of the Panthers both received shutouts, but Auld also gets a 1 in the lose column.\n\nalwaysmoo...>>>> and it doesn't go on as a GWG only if he would score in overtime. and the only thing it affects on a goalie is in the Win, lose column if the team scored 2 of 3 it will not be added to the goalies GAA stats.\n\nGO HABS GO!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Crosby, Ovechkin, and Luc Robitaille for sure. I think also Rick Nash and Ilya Kovalchuk, and maybe Dany Heatley

The Stanley Cup is 111 years old and logged close to 550,000 miles in travel in the past eight seasons. It has raised more than $6.2 million for charity and been a guest at the White House, the Late Show with David Letterman and Yankee Stadium, just to name a few. \n\nThe Cup is the only trophy in professional sports that bears the names of winning players, coaches and management. As of April 2004, there were more than 2,250 names on the Cup.\n\nKeeper of the Cup - Mike Bolt: Henri Richard is on their 11 times as a player. Jean Belliveau is on their 17 times, 10 as a player and seven as management.

Thornton won the MVP in a close vote of the Professional Hockey Writers' Association, finishing with 1,058 points to Jagr's 974. Calgary goalie Miikka Kiprusoff was a distant third with 561 votes.

no, because of the kings and canucks.  \n\nside note:  oilers need a new goalie after the season.

In 1981–82, the “Great One” set single-season NHL marks for goals (92), assists (120), and points (212), becoming the first player to achieve more than 200 points, and in 1985–86 he set new single-season assists (163) and points (215) records. He retired in 1999 with the lifetime goal (894), assist (1,963), and point (2,857) records, and was NHL scoring champion ten times and most valuable player nine times. In 2001, Gretzky became the managing partner of the NHL's Phoenix Coyotes; he also became the team's coach in 2005.

Close but no.  Pronger has been great, but as a team the Oilers were consistent and Roloson was HOT.  He is actually third this year so far behind:  Joe Sakic and Scott Neidermayer.  Colorado would not be in the 2nd round but for the leadership of Sakic.  This is his team and he shows up every night and leads the charge.  Neidermayer was the best player in the Ducks-Flames series and stabalizes the whole team.  So my top 3 are all out West.  Which means someone from the East will win the Cup.  My pick as of today: New Jersey

I don't think so. The looked abysmal against Latvia and that tie will cost them down the line. The roster could be better too. They left their best goalie back in the states: Ryan Miller of the Buffalo Sabres. That was a huge mistake!\n\nI think the three medalists will be Russia, Sweden and Finland, probably in that order.

i say there are too many greats still playing but i will name a few based on their skills and leadership: steve yzerman(great leader, in top 10 list with points), lidstrom-great 2 way defenseman, crosby (future star with great potential), jagr- pure scorer, joe sakic- great leader, chelios- oldest defenseman in nhl today, mario lemieux-great scorer and leader, and gretzky- top point leader of all time.  some of thoese players will be retiring soon so i thought i mention them as greats.

1.) Patrick Roy; #1 in wins and his playoff feats will never be touched.\n2.) Terry Sawchuk; to accomplish what this guy did in the pre-mask era is amazing.\n3.) Glenn Hall; "Mr. Goalie" set an NHL record 502 consecutive games (many of which before wearing a mask) is unrivaled.\n\n   Honourable mention would have to go to Jacques Plante, because without him, many of us goalies would not be as lucky as we are.

If its not Laviolette, then the award is crap.  The hurricanes were predicted to finish LAST out of all NHL teams this season, and they won the Cup, thats pretty awesome. Granted preseason predictions mean very little, but going from worst to first is still pretty awesome if you ask me.  A team full of no big name players wins the cup, GO CANES!!

I asked Gary Thorne (ESPN commentator and USA Today columnist) a couple of weeks ago regarding this on a USA Today chat.  He mentions Daniel Briere but goes on to say it was way too early to determine the Conn Smythe winner.  It's probably still a little early to guess until we have the finals set this evening (or tomorrow morning).  If I had to give my answer right away, I'd go with either of the following:  Daniel Briere, Eric Staal, Cory Stillman, Cam Ward, Dwayne Rolosson or Ryan Miller.

Goalie: Patrick Roy\n\nDefence: Ray Bourque, Nicklas Lidstrom\n\nForwards:  Gretzky, Luc Robitaille, and Gordie Howe

I don't think so.  Unstable goaltending and Smyth just hasn't been doing it this season.  I expect them to slowly fade back to 10th or so.
