Rookie of the Year

[powellfan1]

Who is the frontrunner in the ROY race so far? I'd say its between Boyle and Tillman.

Its a bit early still, but I think that if Ryan Boyle doesn't get the ROY, he should be up for the MVP. In two games, he's been a wrecking crew on that Barrage lineup. If this continues, I think that the MVP award may not seem so far fetched.

I think it depends on who goes farther, if the Barrage make the play-offs then Boyle should get it, but if not I would go with Tillman

idk about Boyle getting MVP or even ROY. i think MVP is out of the question, hes averaging less points a game then Ryan Powell not to mention is shot % is a less then average 25% only 1 gb. hes a solid player and a great feeder but dosent have enough to be MVP. It all depends on if the rattlers keep winnign and if tillman keeps producing, he wasnt bad last week he had like 18 saves which isnt bad, the rattlers just didnt put any points up. i think Tillman will eventully beat out Boyle in a close race.

i think boyle will beat out tillman in close race

really its too early to tell cause most rookies have had two or thre games, but I go with Johnson for right now.

[powellfan1]

I agree it is early, but I did this on purpose to have the debate and analysis stretch out over the rest of the year. i think it would be very hard for Passavia to get it, because he is a defensemen. I don't believe a goalie has ever won it either. If Boyle can keep it going, he will probably win. The only way for TJ to get it is if he keeps having big games like he has, and guiding Rochester to the playoffs.

lets do this pole again in acouple weeks, and also we can then add Zink and Hajj cause they could be in contention later in the year.

[powellfan1]

OK, but I doubt either of those two will even come close in the race.

its definately just ryan and tillman
