To: airborne

Calder: Jeff Skinner, though he may lose some votes due to the reputation (partly undeserved, I think) he’s starting to gain as a diver and pest.

GM of the Year: Yzerman - hard to argue with this one.

Lady Byng: Lidstrom.

Vezina: Thomas - just look at the numbers.

Norris: Lidstrom will win it, though there are probably others who were better defensemen this year. Hell, I’ll even predict that they rename the trophy after him after he retires.

Masterson: I don’t know if you can win this without playing during the season. If so, then my vote goes to Ian Laperriere (who actually is a nominee). If not, then it should be Ray Emery.

Selke: Kesler walking away.

Hart: Probably ought to be Corey Perry, but they’re never going to give this trophy to one of the most hated pests in the league whose name doesn’t start with S and end with ean Avery. Daniel Sedin gets this one.

Jack Adams: Trotz - Quick, name two players on the Nashville Predators other than Shea Weber! Yeah, me neither, but somehow Trotz got them to fifth place in the West.

As an addendum, I think Jacques Lemaire deserves an honorable mention for the Jack Adams for what he was able to do with the Devils.

If the Devils had made the playoffs, I’d probably say he deserves the Adams even more than Trotz. I thought it was crazy that Laviolette wasn’t even a finalist last year for the same reason.
