Hart Trophy - Most Valuable Player
via cdn.nhl.com
Pavel Datsyuk - DET
Evgeni Malkin - PIT
Alex Ovechkin - WAS
I think Ovechin will take this again. Malkin had Crosby to support him and Datsyuk had a stellar team around him. Without Ovie Washington would be hard pressed to even be in a playoff spot.
Calder Trophy - Best Rookie
via cdn.nhl.com
Steve Mason - CBJ
Bobby Ryan - ANA
Kris Versteeg - CHI
Why Pekka Rinne got no consideration is a mystery to me but the nod should go to Mason. He backstopped a Blue Jackets team into their first playoff spot and was far and away the best player on their team.
Vezina Trophy - Best Goalie
via cdn.nhl.com
Niklas Backstrom - MIN
Steve Mason - CBJ
Tim Thomas - BOS
I would vote for Tim Thomas. Unconventional but effective.
Norris Trophy - Best Overall Defenseman
via cdn.nhl.com
Zdeno Chara - BOS
Mike Green - WAS
Nicklas Lidstrom - DET
For the first time I think that Nick Lidstrom will be knocked off his pedestal. It's not because he had a bad season because he was once again solid but because people are so used to his greatness by now they're looking for something else. I expect Chara to get it as both he and Green were solid offensive contributors Chara was more fearsome on the defensive side.
Selke Trophy - Best Defensive Forward
via cdn.nhl.com
Pavel Datsyuk - DET
Ryan Kesler - VAN
Mike Richards - PHI
Datsyuk is just so solid on both ends of the ice he deserves to win this award again.
Jack Adams Award - Coach of the Year
via cdn.nhl.com
Todd McLellan
Claude Julien - BOS
Andy Murray - STL
At one point in the season I could have been sure it would have been Julien but with the way the Blues came on at the end to make the playoffs my vote (if I had one) would go to Murray.
Bill Masterton Award - Perserverence/Dedication to Hockey
via cdn.nhl.com
Chris Chelios - DET
Steve Sullivan - NAS
Richard Zednik - FLA
Zednik got his throat slashed and came back to play hockey. I repeat, he got his throat slashed and came back. If that isn't dedication I don't know what is.
