At this point who should be the hockey playoff MVP?

The award is called the Conn Smythe Trophy... and that's a tough question to ask at this point in the playoffs.\n\nDaniel Briere from BUF and Jonathan Cheechoo from SJ are scoring machines.  Joe Thornton from SJ is a great team leader and motivator.  When you find a balance between quantitative (stats) and emotional (leadership) qualities, then you'll find your MVP.

San Antonio will. They're the defending champs and have even done better than last year by just setting a franchise record 63 wins and they are showing no signs of slowing down. Duncan and Ginobili are all healthy now. Their playoff experience and deep bench will lead them to another championship this year\n\nI don't really care for hockey.

I may go with a goalie..............Ovechkin is a decent choice but Malkin may be the real deal.  Sid the Kid?  \n\nI guess this is why I'm not a GM. :-) \n\nAt first I thought your question was who would you pick to be a GM and I would have to say Garth Snow---then fall down laughing!

Cheap hit?  An Edmonton player knocked the Carolina player into him.  \n\nBut I agree, it's a shame his season has to end this way, and it is a shame for Edmonton to lose him now.  I think he still has a chance to be playoff MVP (depending how the series finishes) for his stellar play in the first three rounds.

Steve Yerzerman\nBrendan Shanahan\nNiklas Lidstrom\nHenrik Zetterberg

THE BEST ICE HOCKEY PLAYER RIGHT NOW HAS TO BE JAROMIR JAGR. BUT WATCH OUT FOR ALEXANDER OVECHKIN AND SID 'THE KID' CROSBY.JAROMIR HAS FOUND HIS PASSION FOR THE GAME AGAIN. HE'S INSPIRED TO PLAY EVERY NIGHT AS OPPOSED TO TAKING GAMES OFF EVERY NOW AND THEN LOKE HE DID IN THE PAST. LET'S HOPE HIS SHOULDER INJURY DOES NOT PROVE TO BE A HINDERANCE IN THE FUTURE.

Probably Jaramir Jagr of the New York Rangers. Most hockey fans talk about Brian McCabe's one timer, but has anyone seen Jagr's one timer? That is one awesome shot.

I sort off agree with you, witout saying anyone sucks Morneau should have been the mvp (or Mauer)\n\nYankees would still have been a playoff team without Jeter\n\nThe Twins would have been nowhere without Morneau.\n\nLook at how the divisions played out, AL Central went to the last day.\n\n\nJeter might well be a better player, and had a better season, (debatable) but the award is Most VALUABLE Player.\n\nNo one was more valuable to his team that Morneau.

It looks like the Carolina Hurricanes are going to win, because they are up 3-1 in the series.  I would have said that it would be a close series going until 7 games, but the Edmonton Oilers basically got to the finals because of their goalie Dwayne Roloson.  Now that he's injured, they don't have much of a chance because their remaining goalies are not very good.

Right now when healthy it's either Forsberg or Jagr.\nIn a couple of years it's going to be Ovechkin. He's only 20 and he's already one of the most exciting players to watch.

Henrik Lundqvist - Sizzlin'\nOhno a close 2nd for sure.

I'll have to argue and say that the Sharks will win the Pacific division.  Great teams are built up the middle and the Sharks truly follow this path, with the best 1 2 combination of centres in the NHL in Marleau and Thornton, and in goal with Toskala and Nabokov. The centres are able to split much of the ice time among each other and can team up for key power plays and late game situations(think Messier and Gretzky).  Add in the scoring punch of young guns Jonathan Cheechoo, Steve Bernier, and Milan Michalek and you're looking at a deadly combination.  The back end is sharp too, with rookie Matt Carle quarterbacking the powerplay and gritty Scott Hannan and Kyle Mclaren locking up the back end.  Again considering how much rest both star netminders can get(think Gerber and Ward, Vernon and Osgood, or Barrasso and Wregget) and you're not only looking at a team that is good enough to win the Pacific division crown, but will surely compete for Lord Stanley's Cup.
