I'll preface with the obligatory fact that i am not a member of the J Awards Committee and, as such, may have a different criteria for MVP. That being said. Lets take a look at my top 3.

Evan Winter Evan has a tendency to freeze out his opposition whenever he is on the ice. His 82 points are currently 2nd overall but only by 1. His advanced stats are a little on the soft side. Fenwick of .9 and Corsi of...0 like dead even. I am no analytics nerd, but to me this says he is able to do all this without controlling the play more than average. His 154 hits show that he does all of this playing a complete game. Finally, while not a centerman, Winter here has a 53.4% Win rate in the dot in his 118 faceoffs. Mans makes the most of it when needed.

Oles Kobliska Oles is your points leader with 83 points. His Fenwick and Corsi are both sitting at 4.6%, showing that Yukon definitely has control of the game more often because of him. His 87 hits show that he isn't the most physical player per say, though that number may be deflated simply by how much more often he and his team mates have the puck. As a center, you expect good faceoffs and Oles delivers a 58.3% Win rate With over 550 wins in the dot. Game 7 overtime, i want him in it.

Aleksandr Iskandrov Is my last but not least candidate. He is the only other to top 80 points at 80. Fenwick is sitting at 2.1% and Corsi at 1.9%. Positives to be sure. Landing just shy of 100 hits at 97, mans is another complete player and i like the numbers. Also boasting a 52.3% Win rate at Faceoffs and over 580 wins. The wins are important as the more chances you take in the dot, the closer to about 50% you are likely to be and getting that close to 600 wins is no small feat.

Where i would put them in a ranked ballot is hard to say. I like them all and there is still a little more left to be played.
