This is the first time in league history that a player from the non-winning team has been presented with this award.
Van Os_Shaw had an incredible playoffs as he scored 14-17-31 in 13 games played. The 31 points are the highest playoff's point total in recent memory (certainly going back further than our current website has stats for). It's possible that there has never been a 30 point playoff season due to the fact that earlier playoff series were best of 3 and best of 5. Regardless, this is truly an incredible playoff acheivement!
Congratulations Chris on an awesome season.
