I agree with you, but noone in the conference has really seen him play and he is coming off of a big injury. Hopefully this is the last time we are shut out.

I think Andy's lack of being on the list is "out of sight, out of mind". He was the only first-teamer last year, but not being on the post-season list--since he didn't play--is likely the reason he was left off.

The easiest way to fill one of these out is to look at who made the various teams in post-season, and go from there...I'd say most media members do that.
