I mean, listen. If it's not the GOATed name himself, Cristoforo Roccamontepiano, then I don't know who it could be. Let's rhyme off a couple of stats for the haters (should there be any, I don't know how you hate that name)

- 91 points (3rd in the SMJHL)
- 40 goals (2nd in the SMJHL)
- 51 assists (2nd in the SMJHL)
- 17 powerplay goals (1st in the SMHL)
- 34 EV Assists (4th in the SMJHL)

This guys is the absolute face of the best team in the SMJHL, and shows zero signs of slowing down or letting up. At one point this season, he was on a 17 game point streak. He's the leading point scorer on the team with highest goal differential. His goals for per 60 is almost 6. For my advanced stat lovers, he's 3rd in Corsi % and 10th in Fenwick For %.

The best player in the league, on the best team in the league, and he's the driving force of their success? Sounds like an MVP to me. He's 100% my pick for MVP.


If you don't like him, the Valtteri Pulkkinen or Doug Weight are the other 2 options, for sure. Maine had a slow start to the season this year, and these 2 decided that was good enough, threw the team on their back, and have RAMPAGED through the league to drag the Timber to 3rd overall. MVP material to me, and they should 100% be in the conversation.
