    Where would Quick finish in Conn Smythe voting on the Kings? You can put at least 5 Kings ahead of him . Tell me how often that happens on a cup winner.

    Doughty
    Williams
    Carter
    Kopitar
    Gaborik

    I'm sure Quick will no go out and have a 50 save shutout and blow everything up I just said.

    All five. Not often.

    And that's your justification that Quick has had a bad playoffs?

    I respect your sense of humor. ;D

    It's a damn good start. Without those five the Kings are sitting at home and people are crticizing the goaltending the Kings received in this playoffs. There is also stats that quite esasily back up my point.

    OK, you think Quick's been bad. I think he's been inconsistent. Simply a difference of opinion.

    I'll go ahead and let you have the last word since it seems important to you.

    If this is the last game of the season for the Rangers, the fan in me is happy they made it this far but is also disappointed at how easily this series could be 2-1 in their favor.

    Do you not want me to respond to your post when you ask me a question?

    I'm not sure I said bad, you can label it whatever you want, I think he's been below average.

    JC beat me to it. Was going to ask your choice for Conn Smythe at this point.

    I would go:

    1) Jeff Carter
    2) Marian Gaborik
    3) Justin Williams
    4) Drew Doughty

    Barring an incredible comeback --- and yes, we've had our share of those this spring --- I figure the winner has got to come from LA.

    Any of those four would be worthy. I'd pick Gabonik, but that's just me.

    Doughty, best player throughout imo.

    I'd go Kopitar since there is no clear-cut favorite. He matched up and won against Getzlaf, Jumbo Thornton and Toews before the Final. Pretty impressive.
