Gary A. Vasquez / USA TODAY Sports
Jonathan Toews is on track to add a second Conn Smythe Trophy to his ever-lengthening lost of accomplishments.
This according to oddsmakers, who have pegged the Chicago Blackhawks captain as the favorite to be named the MVP of the 2015 Stanley Cup Playoffs.
Tyler Johnson, who leads the field with 12 goals and 21 points during the playoffs, is the best bet to win the award from the Tampa Bay Lightning side.
Toews' teammates Patrick Kane (2010) and Brad Richards (2004) are the only players other than Toews to have previously earned the honor.
