Like Helsinki had a lot more support for Moon, aha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keller was valuable to his team but that doesn’t mean he was a better rookie. “Value” is important for MVP. It isn’t for RPTY where straight stats matter more.

Spade18 1,302 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Amidst all this argument, I'd like to take a moment to throw Colton Rayne's hat in the ring for MVP. 7 goals, 34 assists for 41 points in his rookie year, playing second pairing minutes? If that doesn't scream most valuble, then I'm a mute Indonesia goat herder. Theres a reason the Americans are in the playoff race again, and you need look no further than the left side defenseman on the second pairing.

I guess you might be joking, but considering we had 2 pages over Skye, I won't take any chances. 1st pair D and 2nd Pair D are likely going to have the same ice time as they can play 30 minutes each (if you GM setup correctly your lines).

jRuutu 2,296 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 4 minutes ago, Beketov said: And that argument gets made on occasion; all depends on the season really. An ideal MVP candidate really is a player who does amazing, helps their team win, and has barely any help. However that is rarely the case most seasons. Cornerstone has a case because of how little help was on Helsinki. Personally I would think Boeser would as well but some points were made in here against that. I’m not here to discuss every option really. I’m just saying that MVP, like most awards, doesn’t have a check list of criteria in order to win it. The discussion changes per year depending how things went during the season. I hope Cornerstone gets it then, exactly like you said - ideal candidate for the award. 6 minutes ago, boubabi said: Again, don't bring your vendetta against the 2 lines concept here. It's useless and irrelevant. A 120 pts season is relative to other players and other seasons. That's how we know if it's good or bad. Again, I've calculated the pts contribution for the players, and I would also say that a 66% points contribution is very very very good. I have to bring it, making it sound like these 120 points players are the greatest players ever, but extremely little focus is put on the fact that most teams don´t have that many players. Players on the defensive end get very little love 7 minutes ago, Beketov said: Don’t try in turn this into another one of your arguments about having more depth players that few people want to really be. The fact is, the league has run for 58 seasons as a primarily 2 line league. So the awards have always been voted on with that logic in mind. The league hasn’t changed so suddenly deciding that we want to vote on awards based on depth that doesn’t exist makes no sense. But don´t you think it´s kinda interesting that points are so valuable in a league like this with no depth? Would almost make sense to swing the attention to defensive statistics instead? Players who can stop plays and keep the own end clean in a so offensively minded league like VHL should be in a much bigger window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boubabi 4,725 Posted January 31, 2018 Author Share Posted January 31, 2018 However JRuutu, you must be forgetting that every players have 99 endurance. That can make them play a full 30 minutes. With that, 2 lines of F and 2 lines of D should get you a full icetime of ''real players'' but hey, I'm just sayin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
