However, I don't trust hockey writers to respect that, since they have a dirty habit of handing the Conn Smythe to a player on the losing team.</p> http://dcist.com/2008/04/30/caps_briefing_o_3.php#comment-1351846 http://dcist.com/2008/04/30/caps_briefing_o_3.php#comment-1351846 Comments Wed, 30 Apr 2008 16:19:25 -0500 <p>It's good to see the IIHF Worlds getting some respect. Especially since this has badmouthed the tournament in the past.</p> http://dcist.com/2008/04/30/caps_briefing_o_3.php#comment-1351784 http://dcist.com/2008/04/30/caps_briefing_o_3.php#comment-1351784 Comments Wed, 30 Apr 2008 15:30:09 -0500 <p>It' too bad that he won't be with the Capitals next year as he has been called up to the NFL's Miami Dolphins.

While certainly up to the task, Ovechkin wouldn't have put up such gaudy offensive numbers with better scorers around him. Ovechkin will probably win it (deservedly), but Malkin is zeroing in on a Conn Smythe, which beats a Hart trophy any day.</p>
