His comments took me off guard too. The last thing you are on this site is a troll. That comment, even in jest, is unfair. You contribute a lot to discussion on HI so keep the comments coming.

Thanks!!! So anyone else think that Hall can pull off the Hart?

So, be honest, did anyone else tear up when they talked about the shooting in Florida, Vegas, and the accident in Saskatchewan? I'm comfortable in my masculinity to admit that I did during all those topics tonight. :noreply:

I picked Mackinnon would edge him out, but not at all surprised, TOTALLY deserving of this. Congrats Taylor!

IF I hadn’t said Keller and you had just said anyone picking anyone but Barzal I wouldn’t have said a thing. But the fact I was the only one who said Keller and you made the comment about anyone picking Keller doesn’t have one iota of common sense........hmm, yeah, not very good at hiding that little
Jab eh?
One day we will talk out from behind the keyboards I hope, maybe you’ll get a different view of me? And me if you? Have a good night.

I, and this is honest and quantifiable, contribute a TON to conversation on here and thoughtful conversation at that. And if you see the fact I’m the only one who said Keller and then the remark about anyone (only me) picking Keller had not one iota of common sense then yes, you’ll see the jab, pretty obvious and a few others I spoke to here saw it as well. If he had just kept it simple that no one should pick anyone but Barzal there would have been no issues. But he singled me out. So yeah, he got served!

Remembered Member,
Your comments there (troll comment post toward Bossy) were unnecessary and I don't see how that makes Bossy a troll. He definitely is not. So your comments were out of line. If I was you you should move on and drop this with Bossy.
I will also say that I agree and did not say anything regarding your contributions to the site. I'm looking at things objectively and this is not personal. But I will say, imo, that you too, are one of the best and most interesting contributors to HI there is. I read and contribute to most of your posts/topics. HI also would not be the same without you. I have no quarrel with you aside for that comment you made. But anyway, lets move on and keep this thread going, because it's a great thread for potentially great discussion.
Thanks,
Collin

Going back and reading my post I could see how you saw that as a jab, to be honest it wasn’t meant to be but I am sorry. It definitely sounded like one. It was a bad attempt at friendly trash talk but came out poorly. I was just trying to say my boy Barzal was far and away the leader in this category. Sorry about the jab.
That being said, pretty stoked that Hall pulled it off! Bet it was close!!!
Keep it clean boys, I have my eyes on this thread.

Nothing to see here now Ameet. It's run it's course, all good on my end now, both said our piece and we cool.
And Bossy and I both use Old Spice body wash so we are clean as ****! (See the irony there?)

Now you’re calling me old! It may be true but, yep, it’s true. Overall, good choices all around. Some I liked, some I didn’t, but all deserving!!! Boys, and to think the Oilers could have had Hall flying down McDavids wing!!!

NO more of that talk. This season was hard enough to bear, let alone bring up that we traded a player who is now the MVP of the league. :loseit:
However, I can now say that I collect the NHL MVP for at least 1 year.
I hope this doesn't mean I'll have to pay double for his cards from now on.
Hopefully, I'll have a rather large update on my Hall PC soon to show everyone.

Hopefully they make some cool cards of him with his hardware for your pc!!!!

Congrats on your PC player Taylor Hall on winning MVP! Well deserved. He'll probably have a few awards cards in the near future for you to pickup. So that's always nice!
And I'm stoked to see your Hall PC update. Can't wait! :dance:

I picked Staal over Boyle because losing a child seems like the most horrific thing that can happen. But Boyle was deserving. As far as the big one, the Hart, wow, I was surprised Hall got it but not surprised as he was very worthy. The voting was fairly close as well, Kopitar wasn’t even in the race, just MacKinnon and Hall. Edmonton #1 picks had a great night!

Verified Trader,
I don't necessarily agree with Hall winning the Hart, although he had a phenomenal season. That being said, Oilers fans shouldn't be too upset, since he NEVER would have achieved those numbers if he had stayed in Edmonton. He would have always been second fiddle to Connor. In NJ they had pretty much no other options other than Hischier, so he was given every opportunity to succeed.

Verified Trader,
Just curious why you do not agree? I'm not saying that the other candidates did not deserve it (as a big Avs fan I know what Mackinnon brought), but Hall had 41 points more than the next best person on his team. They had up and down goaltending (Kinkaid had the best stats at 2.77 GAA and .913 SV %). He far and away was the #1 reason they made the playoffs after an awful season.

Verified Trader,
I feel that MacKinnon meant more to his team. Hall was a dynamic force, but based on his teammates stats, the argument could be made that he did little to make his teammates better.
In other words, Taylor was selfish and did it all himself, while Nate actually made his linemates better.
Nate also had 12 GWG to Hall's 7. Which, in a roundabout way, means he directly responsible for 24 points in the team standings vs 14 for Hall. Depending on who those points were against, it could have been the difference between COL or NJ just squeaking into the playoffs vs not even getting a sniff.
That being said, it was insanely close in the voting, so the award could have gone either way. I really can't be upset about how the voting went.
