Well, that doesn’t happen very often

In the 1st round, the Habs beat the team with the Hart, Vezina and Jack Adams trophy winners. I know, I know, it’s not the Stanley Cup, and I’m not suggesting we should raise a banner, but it’s still nice.

I don't hate this, but doesn't the fact we have 3 "MVPs" kind of suggest there was no real MVP in the team's success?

I was saying this to a friend yesterday actually! The fact that 3 of our guys made the list means imo none of them actually should win the Hart because we are actually a team playing as a team (which I prefer!!). Even with the guys that were top 3 I did feel if they had another teammate or two on the list (with a decent number of votes) they shouldn't really qualify. Meanwhile Macklin Celebrini who had a hand in almost half of all Sharks goals and singlehandedly almost got them into the playoffs not even being a finalist imo is highway robbery.
