He should be in the mix, as he is having a great year, but in no way is he a lock. I think by the end of the year, he will be one of the leading D scorers, but unless the Flames make the playoffs, or he is ahead in the scoring race by a sizable margin, my guess is that he will be passed over for the win. Tons of great defensemen have not won the award, no shame in that.

O.K. there has been a lot of talk on whether or not MacTavish has actually done a good job for us, most fans on this board are very basic in their analysis and I feel would change their opinion entirely if the team was successful.
