2024-25 Anaheim Ducks MVP

[Felidae]

Who was their MVP this season?

Let me know if another player deserves to be added

 

[MMC]

Dostal

 

[Johnny Tomala]

Lukáš Dostál

The 24 year old goalie who made Keefe from the Devils say "We didn't have an answer for him tonight" in his post game comments

 

[Gliff]

Couldn’t vote both goalies, went with Lacombe.

Wait a second, I'm kinda surprised Dostal is looking to be the consensus pick.

His stats don't seem remarkable and normally I wouldn't hold that against him considering his team, but Gibson is 8th in sv% and 17th in goals saved above expected. Granted he played 21 less games, but did Dostal even have a 29 game or comparable stretch as good as that?

Also, Lacombe is 9th in goals, 18th in points (3rd on team) and 17th in EVP among dmen leaguewide. He seems to be better relative to his peers than Dostal is

I went with McTavish. Would defer to their own fans but he to me he seems like the lifeblood of the team as well as being an outstanding player.

Yeah, he did - he was top 5 in GSAx for much of the season before a recent decline.

Dostal, AINEC

His stats were basically identical to Gibson until the middle of March: 2.86 and .911 in 42 games.

I still vote for Lacombe though. Dostal is amazing but Lacombe does it every night - he's their best player by a considerable margin IMO.

@WhatTheDuck You didn't even vote?

Tough one to answer. If I could co vote for both goalies, that would be my pick. Given that they split starts, I'm going with the guy most responsible for our success on a nightly basis, or most worthy of credit for the team's improved record - Jackson LaCombe

He doesn't need to be added because he won't get votes, but Zegras has been more instrumental to the team's success than roughly half the names here. He's been performing like a point per game player since returning from injury and the team is notably more dangerous with him in the lineup.

I just assumed he was having a down year. Good to see he's starting to return to form
