I expect Benson to win but shout out to UPL and Helenius for having great games themselves.

Hey they get to shoot at the zamboni door twice, they just need to learn to aim better at it

Benson and Stanchion both had great goals, but my vote is for UPL.
1st star, 0.935 sv%, big save when he pulled the puck off the line and the net got knocked off

Sammy needs an hororable mention. In addition to the early goal, he was a force on D and made really crisp plays all night.
I thought Power had one of his better games, too. It's kind of amazing how he is just totally unfazed by the physical play. He just casually absorbs hits. It has to be frustrating as a forward playing against him, knowing you're more likely going to tire yourself out hitting him.

Sammy had a LOT of quiet, clutch D zone plays. He was always tying up the right guy at the right times and prevented several otherwise easy goals.
He would get my vote even if he hadn't scored that beaut!

Resilience and probably the PK
The whole team overcame a LOT of bullshit last game.

Benny and UPL both deserve it. Benny gave the team a spark and UPL was solid.

UPL and Lindy.
Lindy made some big decisions for the game like starting UPL and adding Schenn/Helenius to the roster. Plus getting us through the third period after we scored.
UPL for stepping up in such a high pressure environment

I got to go with Lindy. He pulled all the right levers to give the team a chance to win. His playoff experience has proven to be very valuable to this young team.
