Iginla winning it is a no brainer. Only player who really could be argued is Brad Richards and it probably will come down to who wins the series. Still hard to overlook the fact that guys like Kipper and Gelinas have been huge contributors just like on the other side where Vinny has resurrected his career with this postseason and the world has seen how dangerous St. Louis is.
sick G, ur sick, lol.
You should move to Tampa for all you know about hockey.
How many times in the Playoffs (if you've seen every Flames game like me) have you said to yourself "Iginla is unbelievable". Have you said that about Kipper? Please. Give me a ****ing break. Excuse my French.
Kipper's stats are a product of overall team defence. In Game 3, I doubt if he was even sweating after the shutout. Kipper also stunk against Vancouver. He has played well since, granted, but Calgary has got this far due to Iginla. It's not even worth debating.
As for Richards, that's also hogwash. The game winning goal stat is meaningless. If you score the 3rd goal and your team takes a 4-0 lead, then the other team score 2 goals, you get the game winning goal. Big deal.
When Sakic was scoring all those game winners when he set the previous record, they were legit big time goals at the end of games.
Iginla deserves the Conn Smythe regardless of what happens in the last two games, as the trophy is for overall playoff perfomance. The problem is, the hockey writers vote for it, and most of the American writers are clueless, basing their vote on stats.
True story.... When Theodore beat Iginla for the Hart two years ago, the difference was first place votes as they were tied. All the writers vote for their top 10 players. 10 points for first down to one point.
The Nashville writer forgot to include Iginla in his top 10, so Theodore wins the Hart. Another travesty. It's Kristin Babb-Sprague all over again. Only worse, because the vote should have never been that close in the first place. That year, several goalies had similar stats to Theodore, whereas Iginla was by far and away the best scorer.
If Iginla doesnt win the Conn Smythe and I get ripped off of my future bet, I will get the email of every member of the Professional Hockey Writers' Association and offer them a free dinner with sick gambler as punishment.

first of all chachi, i think you are a homo, not that there's anything wrong with that? Why would any grown man call himself chach for unless he's a fruit. A lot of girls loved chachi back in my elementary school days because they thought he was cute. Is that how you feel chachi boy. Why would you call yourself chach for? Are you really a fruit? Don't tell me.. I bet you find him cute, right? Don't you have anything better to do in that boring city of Milwaukee. Do they even have restaurants in Milwaukee. Man, that must be some boring town!!! Now what would you know about hockey chach.. You can't know more than me. You are from Milwaukee.. I am from the home where hockey was invented.
Now take a hike chachi, before I call Richard Simmons after you...

you're still a fag Chachi boy, not that there's anything wrong with that... Now go jerk off to your Chachi poster..
btw, put your money where your mouth is.. I will take Kiprosoff for Conn Smythe, and seeing you're so sure it won't be him, gimme odds on him. I'll take whatever odds you want to give me, but it must be fair, seeing you are so sure it won't be him. And I want cash up front. I don't trust no poster who is this fruity who calls himself chach..
Now go wack off to this picture, chach..
