You make the call: team MVP

It’s time for media members to cast their votes from the Kings player awards, in the categories of Team MVP, Best Defenseman, Best Newcomer and Best Defensive Player. I have some thoughts on the awards, but I want to get your input. I’ll post a series of polls this afternoon so that everyone can weigh in. In the cases of Best Defensemen and Best Newcomer, there is a fixed number of candidates. For Team MVP (below) and Best Defensive Player, I have selected a handful of “finalists” to choose between. Make your voice heard (or at least your mouse click).
