Fantasy Awards: Tyson Barrie blows up, but which goalie was MVP?

Tyson Barrie had a strong week. So did Alex Ovechkin and, by proxy, Nicklas Backstrom. But none of them were the most valuable fantasy player of the week.

Who was? Watch and learn.

(Hint: It was not Taylor Hall because … yuck.)

Yahoo Sports’ Greg Wyshynski takes a look at the week that was in fantasy puck, with trends and transactions. Who won your pool? Who lost it? Wysh has some awards to hand out.
