""One guy I think has to be up for the award, somehow in the final three, is Schaefer. I think he's got to be in there. He's so important to that team and really changed that whole team.""
""I'll say Schaefer because they went from not making the playoffs to being right there from first overall (pick). It's a toss-up with those two (Schaefer and McDavid), but I'll give him the benefit because he's a defenseman.""
""While McDavid has shown year after year that he is the league's top player, it's hard to argue that any player has been as valuable to his team as Schaefer has to the Islanders.""
