As much of the discussion on individual award trophies has centered around the Hart for Nathan MacKinnon and Norris for Cale Makar, there a little matter of another business to settle before the regular season concludes. That is the race for the Art Ross Trophy presented to the player who led the league in points for the regular season.
Currently there are only two candidates in this race, Colorado Avalanche’s own superstar center Nathan MacKinnon and Tampa Bay Lightning winger Nikita Kucherov. The battle has heated up recently with each presently tied at 116 points.
