I love watching Sergei Bobrovsky play. He's such a great goaltender who is severely underrated around the league. Never gets the attention players like Lundqvist or Price get. And yet all he's done is
-Win 2 Vezina trophies
-A Hart nomination
-Another top 5 Hart finish
-1st team all-star (x2)
-Career .920 sv%.
He's as elite of a goalie as their is in the NHL right now, and yet is rarely talked about. If he ever has a great playoffs and wins a cup, he will have potentially carved himself out a nice HOF career.
Even sweeter is that Philly has a reputation of being a goalie graveyard, traded the guy away for peanuts, and he won the Vezina, was a 1st team all star and Hart nominee the very next season. I love seeing trades like that blow up in teams' faces.
He also makes great memes. Bob is awesome.

And Philly traded Carter and Richards so they could afford Bryz, to make Bobrovsky expendable. A remarkably terrible sequence of moves.

I also really enjoy him. I think because he has been so very average/terrible in the playoffs people seem to forget about him. Oh and he is Russian.
Ovechkin has been my favorite player since he came into the league essentially. Love me some goal scoring.l
