As a Devils fan, it's easy to spot when the league wants it's way. Referee Bill McCreary should have been awarded the Conn Smythe.

Chris Osgood, and it's in my DNA to dislike the Red Wings. In 2003, even though the Ducks lost to New Jersey, they awarded it to Giguere.

there were other players far more worthy than Malkin. Evidently, he got two gifts, no suspension and a trophy for instigating.

Obviously Bill McCreary was the MVP for the Pens. Just because he wore a striped shirt is no reason to overlook his immense contributions.
