It should turn out to be a really close vote. Of course we all prefer Kopitar but if you're honest with yourself you'll have to admit Getzlaf is a very, very good player. Kopitar gets my vote due to his better overall game. Plays 200 feet all the time.

Too early in their brackets for this match-up--two of the four best centers in hockey (Crosby & Toews round it out for me at that level)
Then Brad Richards.....lol
Saw that, Kopitar won. I think an argument could be made for both players, I like them both but for different reasons.
Toews vs Kopitar, Toews is going to win that one hands down. Not saying it's right/not right, but that's what's going to happen. Kopitar is still somewhat held in less regard than Toews even though he is just as good and has accomplished just as much.
Yeah Puck, I've gotta agree with you on that. Right or wrong Toews is Canadian and Kopitar is Slovenian. Kopitar will get a lot of votes from Kings fans but all of Canada is going to vote for Toews along with all the midwest and eastern hockey fans. Just like the Getzlaf/Kopitar matchup this should have come much later in the brackets.
The whole thing is kind of silly anyways. It's completely set up to come down to Crosby vs Toews.
