All four teams have played 10 of their 12 regular-season games. Everything is crazy close right now -- the first-place Comets and the fourth-place Bulldogs are separated by a scant two points. The playoff race is going right down to the wire. So too are the races for individual awards. Aside from Rookie of the Year (which Tommy "Tools" Smith is going to win in a cakewalk) and Forward MVP (which is still pretty wide open), we have razor-thin margins separating the two top contenders for the Scoring Title (Frank McGee at 17 points, Cyclone Taylor at 16), Defenseman MVP (Hod Stuart and Mike Grant are tied in points with 13 apiece, and nearly tied in plus/minus), and Goaltender MVP (Riley Hern has a sliver of an edge over Percy LeSueur in save percentage while the two men have identical goals-against averages). A great deal will be decided in the teams' final two games!
