Here’s a quick review of this week’s candidates:
Jonathan Quick… two games played, only gave up one goal in each – posting a .948 save percentage in the process
Mike Richards – four shots on goal, four hits, seven penalty minutes – including a fight with a guy two feet taller than him
Willie Mitchell – stout defensive play
This poll closes at 8pm PST on Wednesday.
