00:00As we look at the current nhl award favorites, you'll see a lot of minus money on this board
00:06But in various different ways be in terms of some of those minus money
00:11Prices leon dry sidle of the oilers is the favorite right now to win the heart trophy
00:17Which is basically the mvp in the national hockey league peter
00:20Did you look at all these numbers all have a minus in front?
00:23But which one down the stretch run of this nhl season feels the most up for grabs?
00:30I think that zak warensky if the columbus blue jackets make the playoffs could maybe unseat
00:37Kal mccarr for the norris
00:39He's been that good comparatively and a number of different defensemen scoring and league leaderboard categories
00:46Also for jack adams scott arneal the winnipeg jets have maybe been the biggest story in the league this year
00:52I know that washington has been a bigger surprise
00:55But sometimes these surprising teams like you're seeing it now with the minnesota wild they go on a bit of a spill
01:00Maybe they regress a little bit
01:02I know that ovechkin is going to be in the midst of the great chase for wayne gretzky down the stretch may even get it
01:08this year
01:09Especially if he gets it. I mean what an incredible story that team is
01:13Maybe spencer carberry will run away with this thing, but i'd still think there is some regression due for the capitals
01:19I never would have expected them to be this good. So maybe don't count out scott arneal for those winnipeg jets
01:25That started the season off on that ridiculous rampage
01:29Pete, let me talk to you about the heart trophy here because the best player in hockey
01:32Maybe the best name in hockey leon drysaddle is a minus 115 price here. Nathan mckinnon collar hellebuck conor mcdavid kucharoff
01:40Is there a guy that you like at the top or is there somebody that still could steal this year late in the season?
01:47I mean still just stepping back and looking at leon drysaddle
01:51Winning it it's not no discount to him and what he's done
01:55but he plays on the same team as conor mcdavid conor mcdavid at any point could just
02:00Unleash and go go crazy and put up two points per game down the stretch of the season
02:05I know that he missed a little time because of injury and then had that three-game suspension
02:09So that's why he's kind of fallen back a little bit
02:12But still not a bad player
02:15To invest in in terms of his ceiling the rest of the way and then if you're looking at big picture
02:21Who's the most valuable player for the oilers generally speaking? It is conor mcdavid drysaddle is a very close second
02:28So yeah, that's going to be interesting
02:30And I think that in the goal scoring race one other guy I wanted to mention for the four nations is sam reinhardt
02:37He is I believe tied five for second behind drysaddle about seven goals behind him
02:43in the regular season give or take but
02:45Sam reinhardt's going to be playing on power play one for canada and also when he goes back to the panthers
02:51He has been the best goal scorer this past calendar year. He
02:55Led the nhl and special teams goals
02:58So power play goals plus shorthanded goals and he's on power play one for team canada with an all-world lineup
03:05right mckinnon car mcdavid
03:08And sydney crosby. So can you get much better than that to be the finisher on that group?
