Hmmm im finding it hard to come up a player on the blues who deserves the conn smythe more than Rask...
Tarasenko, O'Reilly maybe but overall I think the blues have been locked in with a team effort, while Rask has been an absolute beast all post-season, while certain others (bergeron, pasta, rat) have all been hot and cold.

Winning the conn smythe but not the cup has only happend a couple times, and not since 2003.
If i had a vote, i would vote Rask.

Rask has been an absolute beast.

He outplayed Bob who was great in the 1st round and because of that CBJ did not have much of a chance vs the Bruins. Think he had 2 shutouts in that series and has just been rolling from there.

Bob was UNREAL against us, especially early in the series

That is true. He played outstanding as well. I think that is just higher praise for Rask, because despite that he was still the better goalie.

CBJ wins that series if Rask is just Average, probably in 6 games.

So pumped for this game!

I feel bad for the blues, getting so close yet getting destroyed at the last step
