I think he'll get serious consideration, yeah. I mean, it typically just goes to the highest scorer with the lowest PIM numbers, so he'll definitely get looked at.
Maybe. Although there are people right there with him in that sense. Giroux, Eberle, Hossa.
Personally though I'd like to see it stay with Datsyuk. He's scored at a PPG, has only 14 PIM's and does that while being one of the best defensive forwards in the league. I think that probably looks better on him than guys who just don't get penalized because they don't play a tight checking game.
I was thinking that the Toronto media might throw him some extra votes, but then again who knows.
