Awarded to the league's most overrated player
(Not to be confused with the most overPAID player)
And the winner is...
Carey Price
Poor kid. After an amazing run as the playoff MVP of the Calder Cup, Price was given the keys by an over-optimistic (and questionably sane) Bob Gainey. The result was predictable: he struggled mightily in the opening playoff round, and flat-out sucked in the second. The following year he had a .905 save percentage and a 2.83 Goals against average. Not bad, but nowehere near the god-like status he enjoys among Habs faithful. And his playoff stats this year? 4.11 and .878. Four Habs Fans calls him "The Franchise Saviour". Everyone outside of Montreal just calls him the most overrated player in the NHL right now.
