Eklund: Could Tavares Swipe Hart Trophy w/ Late Push?
Prior to suffering a broken jaw, it was almost a foregone conclusion that Pittsburgh Penguins superstar Sidney Crosby was destined to skate off with the second Hart Trophy of his NHL career. Now there is at least a possibility that another candidate could make a last-moment push and grab the MVP trophy.
My alternative choice: John Tavares. The New York Islanders' center has...
