Ask FS! 3/15/07

Welcome back loyal readers! It's time once again for the only online column that will never fake the funk on a nasty dunk, it's "Ask FS!" Today's question comes to us from Tom in Red Bank, NJ. Tom wonders

Who do you think will win this year's Hart trophy?

Great question Tom! FS doesn't like to look at the people that score lots of empty net goals, or stop lots of shots from the point, or rack up secondary assists. I like to look at the players that never do much, but when they do it, it darn well counts! That's why "Ask FS!" wants to name Jeff Halpern as his Hart Trophy front runner for the season! Jeff Halpern only has 6 goals this year, but 4 of them are game winning goals. Just think, if Halpern knocks one in, there's a 66% chance you've won the game! Honorable mention in this award goes out to Brian Rafalski of the New Jersey Devils, who has 4 game winners on only 8 goals on the season.

If you have a question that you'd like to see show up in a future edition of "Ask FS!," just drop it in the comments section below, or email it to me via the link provided in the profile. Until next time, Let's Go Caps!
