2007 NHL Awards

The NHL awards were on last night. Youre thinking "What, when was that". Well, they were scheduled to be on OLN at 7:00, but at ten after seven, a banner came on saying they would be seen at 11PM. Good to see the awards were pushed back three hours in order to air a Chuck Norris Total Gym Infomercial.

On to the actual awards show, it was well hosted by Ron MacLean. He was at his best when he ripped NBC for cutting out of a playoff game for a horse race (better than the total gym commercial). The only award that seemed unfair was the Lester B. Pearson award that went to who else, Sydney Crosby. I know Crosby is the NHL golden boy, but how does he beat out Joe Sakic for person of the year? Not all the awards have to go to one guy. Touching moment when Phil Kessel won the Masterson Award. He's ready for a big year.

And again, how did Marty Brodeur beat out Tim "The Tank" Thomas for the Vezina Trophy?
