The final weeks of the NHL season could be absolutely chaotic, from determining playoff seeding to watching teams skate hard until their bubbles burst.
The final NHL Awards Watch of the season reveals similar uncertainty. Some races have razor-thin margins. Others could get there, as potential finalists close their seasons in style. The MVP race has a clear favorite -- but how solid is his support?
Once again, what separates NHL Awards Watch apart is that these are the actual ballots from the actual awards voters. We've polled a wide selection of Professional Hockey Writers Association voters anonymously to get a sense of where the wind is blowing for the current leaders. We've made sure it's a cross section from the entire league, trying to gain as many perspectives as possible.
Bear in mind that the PHWA votes for the Hart, Norris, Calder, Selke and Lady Byng finalists; broadcasters vote for the Jack Adams; and general managers handle the Vezina.
