Cincinnati Cyclones goaltender Rob Madore was named Most Valuable Player of the 2014 Kelly Cup Playoffs, becoming the first player from the losing team to win the award in the ECHL's 26-year history.
Madore played every second for the Cyclones in the playoffs, posting a 14-10 record with a 2.29 goals-against average and a .930 save percentage. Madore led all goaltenders in the postseason in games played (24), wins (14), minutes played (1,493) and saves (756).
He's the fourth Cyclone to earn the accolades; in 2008, David Desharnais was named the Kelly Cup Playoffs MVP after Cincinnati's first title. Then, in 2010, goaltenders Robert Mayer and Jeremy Smith were honored as co-winners.
