Malkin deserves to be MVP. End of story.

I've long been a Malkin fan.

When asked "Crosby or Ovechkin?"
My answer is obviously Malkin.


I love what Crosby brings to hockey, and even his image is promoting the sport. But he's a little picture perfect.

And Ovechkin, he looks like a monkey, and honestly if any of us were to meet him if he wasn't super talented and famous, we'd call him a douchebag and have nothing to do with him.

So why Malkin?
I'm so glad you asked.

• Crosby goes down, Malkin steps up, about the eqivalent number of steps as there are in the CN Tower (wiki says: 2579 to the SkyPod) and that's alot of stepping up to do.
  
• Crosby comes back, Geno tells him how nice the view is from way up there, tells him to catch up
• Malkin is not friends with Ovechkin. Sure, he helped the monkey kid during the All-Star challenge. It doesn't make them friends. Kovalchuck brought about the peace that weekend anyways.
• He tries hard, all the time, what a champ
• His attempt to learn English is super endearing (yes, I used the word "endearing"). Anyone whose text messages used to consist of combinations of K, $ and Da, has to be a winner. Also, watch, Malone captures Malkin for a bit of an interview.

• Best looking member of the Penguins...or so he says himself, nothing wrong with a little confidence.
• Carrot is his stalker (I could explain, link or otherwise explain this reference but I choose not to, tPB covered/instigated/finished that mess)
• 105 points so far this season. Try denying that.
• Not only does he lead in points he leads in assists. And he cant be passing to Crosby all the time since that kid has <30>
• He goes fishing with Gonchar
  
• He's just awesome

So Malkin. MVP.

Geno is the man.


and Dupis is the ICEMAN:
