He is...
one of the most highly skilled players of his time. I enjoy watching him because he plays a real game and isn’t afraid to play hard, unlike some faces ::cough Crosby cough:: of the NHL.

He deserves it and we know it..
I’m a bit late.. sorry, but we all know Ovi deserved it this year. Me being a diehard Leafs fan, but don’t get me wrong, I still have a ton of respect for guys that work as much as Ovi and Sid The Kid.. Go Ovi!

Interesting.
I’m picking Ovie to win the Hart, because he led his team to the playoffs, he plays the game physically and emotionally, and he’s a scoring machine. However, I’m a big Iggy fan, and am more and more amazed at what a leader he has become.
