Hextall 4 Hobey


First time poster, long time reader.
Hextall doesn't put up the most points, but he single handily beats teams. He took the Golden Chokers out of their game. He took the Denver Pioneers out of their game. TJ Oshie, Jonathan Toews, Zach Parise could only beat 1-3 guys on the ice. Hextall beats 20+. There has been no better evidence than the past 2 weekends and both teams have credited Hextall for getting under their skin and throwing them off their game.

Here is Hextall drawing 3 penalties (1 - 10 minute misconduct) in a time span of around :30 seconds.

Here is more of Hextall's work (from the Herald - "It appeared that a Brett Hextall check near the Denver bench set off Gwozdecky, although he wouldn’t confirm it. The coach jumped on top of the dasher boards and flailed his arms at Anderson, asking the ref to throw Hextall out of the game"):

And for somebody who writes about Boogard on a daily basis, even you have to appreciate this:

He will never get considered for the Hobey because, obviously, this goes against what the Hobey stands for but I do think he is the MVP of the Sioux, and probably the WCHA. I don't give a flying fuck about class. Class doesn't win championships. Hextall does.
