But this week, Wild fans hope for a change to the traditional phrase, as Wild goalie Devan Dubnyk looks to bring some hardware back to Minnesota. The Calgary native is a finalist for both the Vezina Trophy and the Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy at Wednesday's NHL Awards ceremony at the MGM Arena in Las Vegas.
While talk of trophies is expected at the ceremony, Dubnyk’s media availability Tuesday in Las Vegas was, not surprisingly, dominated by contract talk. A soon-to-be unrestricted free agent, Dubnyk reiterated that he wants to remain with State Of Hockey’s team and hopes to get a contract finalized with the Wild.
