> Yeah, he is a way more of an all around player…but the bottom line is Geno didn’t even his 40 goals and AO had 56, 10 more than anyone else. I would have liked to see either Geno or Staal nominated for the Selke, but odds are neither of them would have won it anyways. The show was pretty good overall, Geno was funny. I could not understand whay they kept on giving Mike Green a closeup throughout the entire show, kinda odd.

Yeah, AO led the league in goals but that is because he had 528 shots on goal. The second guy in line in the entire league (Eric Staal) only took 372 shots. That is 156 more shots than second place. ANd for those extra 156 shots, he only had 16 more goals than Staal. He also led the league in giveaways, whereas Malkin led the league in takeaways.

AO is a great player, don’t get me wrong, but the only reason he racks up the goals is because he doesn’t/can’t pass the puck and he just shoots the puck every time he touches it. He led the league with 220 missed shots this year. Some guys didn’t even take 220 shots!
