It would be disgusting if Crosby won the Hart over those guys. I don't see Callahan winning the Lady Byng.

"Gentlemanly play" has never been something that comes to mind when thinking of Callahan, so it makes sense that these are not the actual finalists.

And BTW, did anyone else read the thread and say to themselves "WOW Great job Cally! Way to go to be nominated for the Lady Byng!"

Get rid of that award.

It's part of the game's history, so I don't have a problem with it. It should just be something with clearer qualifications to win.

Ovie should be MVP, completely fine if Tavares is MVP too. If the sticks upset the pens, I think youll see JT as the Hart winner.

This looks like wild speculation based on a sample of votes.

I'm supposed to believe Bobrovsky finished first in Hart voting over Crosby/Ovechkin when he didn't even make the playoffs, and the goaltenders rarely, if ever, win the award?

And as cool as I think it would be for Tavares to win the Hart, I don't see that happening either.

And there is this rookie w/ the Panthers, he's kind of good, scored a beautiful goal against us a few weeks ago, and he isn't even on that list (which I'd have a hard time believing since he lead all rookies in goals).

It looks like B.S.

All the voting has been done before the playoffs started. Bill Daly and Bettman know who won all the awards except the Conn Smyth
