Having voted on more than a few NHL Awards ballots here is my early list. My criteria has no analytics, preseason doesn’t count, they have a clean slate. Pavel Zacha didn’t play enough to care last season. The list has nothing to do with who is the better long-term player.

Playing the Giants was the last thing the Mets needed to start their postseason run. The Giants won three championships in six years prior to this season. They know how to win in the postseason by getting excellent starting pitching and timely hitting. The Giants put on a clinic in their 3-0

by Leslie Monteiro - October 4, 20160

It was easy for the Mets to give up when they were 60-62 on Aug. 19. They weren’t hitting. Injuries piled up. The Mets manager was in danger of being fired according to The Record’s Bob Klapisch. Rather than feeling sorry for themselves, they went back to work and found a
