Could someone expalin to me how Price can be voted 1) Best Goaltender, 2) Most Valuable and 3) Best Pro Prospect, yet come in 2nd for Most Overrated? "He's good, but not that good, yet" Maybe its just me. :confused:

I believe this category could be called the "Most Jealous Of" category. Its a bad category and the only negative one in the bunch. Why don't they include a "least mobility aka the Pylon award" or "biggest wussy" category?
