The points race continues as the 2023-24 MVP remains in the balance, with three clear-cut contenders making a case for the Hart Trophy.
USA TODAY Sports via Reuters Conawards futures are dry as a raisin at this point, with run-away favorites in place for the Calder, Norris, Vezina and Jack Adams Trophies.
Only six times in the salary-cap era has the same player sealed both the Hart and Art Ross in the same season, including Connor McDavid last year. Kucherov is amid his third 10-plus point streak and is a key facilitator in propelling the Lightning back into contention. Tampa Bay had won five of its last six games entering Sunday and is on course to safely secure a wild-card spot at the very least.
You could say the same for Brayden Point on Kucherov’s line, but the Lightning aren’t as multi-dimensional as the Avalanche, putting them in some more precarious situations throughout this season. MacKinnon has yet to win MVP despite a handful of tremendous campaigns, and that’s mostly due to McDavid being too unworldly to ignore.
I don’t like Kucherov at +320 because whether he wins the Art Ross or not, he doesn’t have the same two-way forward profile for the Hart. Kucherov won it in 2018-19, but that was after leading the Lightning to the best regular-season record in the history of the NHL at the time.That said, you might as well take the modern era’s most clutch player, especially given that the Oilers have at least one game in hand on everyone else in the NHL.
