Tonight, the NHL rolled out the red carpet in Toronto and went all Hollywood on our collective asses. Sidney Crosby, Nick Lidstrom, Chris Pronger, Vinny Lecavalier and a host of other big NHL names got all dressed up in suits, each hoping to receive some hardware. Before we get to the real award winners, I'd like to present BMR's award for Best Date to Shane Doan of the Coyotes. Doan brought along Trish Stratus, of WWE fame, for the event. Well done Shane, well done.

Here's the rundown:

• Calder Trophy (Rookie of the Year): Evgeni Malkin, PIT
• Norris Trophy (Best Defenseman): Nicklas Lidstrom, DET

• Jack Adams Award (Best Coach): Alain Vigneault, VAN
• King Clancy Memorial Trophy (Leadership/Humanitarian): Saku Koivu, MTL

There were also a few decided by statistics, that we knew the owners of after game 82.
