On Wednesday night, the biggest and brightest stars in hockey will walk the red carpet and head to the annual NHL Awards in Las Vegas.
Here, the league will hand out awards for the past season, including the Hart Trophy for league MVP, the Norris Trophy for the league's best defenseman and the Vezina Trophy for the top goalie in hockey.

All three nominees play for Canadian-based teams.
The winner is: Max Pacioretty.Kevin Connolly of "Entourage" is here to announce the Selke Award for best defensive forward. He is also a big Isles fan.

David Backes, St. Louis
Pavel Datsyuk, Detroit
Patrice Bergeron, BostonTime for the EA Sports cover announcement. The finalists are Claude Giroux and Pekka Rinne. I think Giroux is the favorite because he plays in a bigger hockey market. Steven Stamkos, last year's winner, here as well to pass the baton.
The winner is: Claude GirouxGM of the Year is up next.

This is a surprise to me. Congrats to Armstrong who helped build the Blues into the 2nd best team in the Western Conference during this season.
Thanks to John Davidson, former goalie and broadcaster as well as Hitchcock, the scouting staff and his wife of course.
