Who wins the 2015-16 NHL Awards?
Your esteemed panel: Greg Wyshynski, NHL editor, Puck Daddy; Sean Leahy, editor, Puck Daddy; Jen Neale, editor, Puck Daddy; Josh Cooper, editor, Puck Daddy; Ryan Lambert, lead columnist, Puck Daddy; Darryl “Dobber” Dobbs, fantasy columnist, Puck Daddy; Sam McCaig, NHL editor/columnist, Yahoo Sports.
| Hart Trophy | Art Ross Trophy | Rocket Richard Trophy | Vezina Trophy |
Wyshynski | John Tavares | Sidney Crosby | Alex Ovechkin | Carey Price |
Leahy | Ryan Getzlaf | John Tavares | Alex Ovechkin | Carey Price |
Neale | Sidney Crosby | Tyler Seguin | Alex Ovechkin | Braden Holtby |
Cooper | Jamie Benn | Jamie Benn | Alex Ovechkin | Jonathan Quick |
Lambert | Ryan Getzlaf | Sidney Crosby | Phil Kessel | Tuukka Rask |
Dobber | John Tavares | John Tavares | Alex Ovechkin | Carey Price |
McCaig | Sidney Crosby | Sidney Crosby | Steven Stamkos | Carey Price |
So the prediction here is that Carey Price will win back-to-back Vezina trophies, becoming the first goalie to do so since Martin Brodeur went back-to-back in 2007-09.
Many like Sidney Crosby to win the scoring title with Phil Kessel on his wing. But Alex Ovechkin is the favorite to still skate away with the goals title.
| Norris Trophy | Calder Trophy | Jack Adams Award | Selke Trophy |
Wyshynski | Victor Hedman | Connor McDavid | Barry Trotz | Anze Kopitar |
Leahy | Mark Giordano | Connor McDavid | Barry Trotz | Patrice Bergeron |
Neale | Mark Giordano | Noah Hanifin | Dan Bylsma | Anze Kopitar |
Cooper | Drew Doughty | Connor McDavid | Peter DeBoer | Patrice Bergeron |
Lambert | Erik Karlsson | Connor McDavid | Bruce Boudreau | Patrice Bergeron |
Dobber | Victor Hedman | Connor McDavid | Todd McLellan | David Backes |
McCaig | Drew Doughty | Connor McDavid | Jon Cooper | Patrice Bergeron |
NO LOVE FOR JACK EICHEL? For shame.
Interesting picks for the Norris and the Jack Adams, where two players whose best defenseman campaigns were cut short by injury get love while both the coaches for the Oilers and Sabres get some for the Jack.
