It is pretty incredible that not only did these two finish as first and second in total points they also finished within one point of each other. The points leader on the season went to Eduoard with 101 and Mia finished runner-up at 100 points. With it being so tight it really comes down to whether or not voters value goals more, where Mia shined with a league leading 49, or assists which is where Eduoard led with 66. Ultimately my vote would go to Mia Lavoie as putting the puck in the net is a harder thing to do than passing it to someone to do it for them. Not only did Mia score the puck but she also assisted on 51 goals for teammates that she helped create shots for. Couple that with a plus-47 rating on the ice and I think Mia squeezes this one out. However I would not be surprised if they were named Co-MVP at the end of the voting process, it is that close.

They’re definitely really REALLY strong - the Scarecrows are struggling hard to find a way to overcome their line, but I’m not sure how much value they individually bring to their team - compared to some other players, they’re more like this unstoppable force on their line - but none of them are really *carrying the team alone-* put any other forward in the line, and it would still be one of the most dominant in the league. By contrast, take, say, Warwaha off his line, and that line just collapses xD
