I voted Lidas, but one question.

How about Sergei Gontchar who is underrated one?

They should be. No contest this season in my opinion. Although Phaneuf is getting to that level where he'll be among the finalists every season.

Nik Lidstrom.

No contest.

He's the best defenseman in the NHL and deserves this award every year ... plus his team is going to the Stanley Cup (barring a miracle comeback by Dallas, which likely won't happen).

Lidstrom won this easily. I don't even think Chara should be a finalist.

Lidstrom won easily although I'm still bitter he won all those years over Stevens.

This one goes to Nicklas Lidstrom, and it's not just a homer pick. They need to re-name this trophy already.

chara shouldnt even be mentioned on the list. he has a few good games a year where it seems like he is actually trying and he has a cannon, but he might hurt his team more than any other player on the bruins. he gets toasted 2-3 times per game on average.
