Breaking Down the Resumes for the 2016 NHL Awards Nominees
The NHL will hold its version of the Oscars on June 22. There will be tuxedos, red carpets and corny jokes from an emcee, all in the glitz of Las Vegas (aka "Hockeytown").
We can't kid about anything NHL-related being in Sin City anymore because it really is a hockey city now—or at least all signs point that way. The league hasn't officially awarded a 31st team to Vegas, but it's in the cards. Sorry.
Anyway, there are some of the usual suspects up for the big awards again as well as a few new entries. The biggest award, the Hart Trophy, will be dished out last. Will it go to Sidney Crosby, Patrick Kane or Jamie Benn?
