Sportsnet has come out with it's predictions.
http://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/2009/04/01/nhl_awards_predictions/
Here are mine:
Hart Trophy: Evegeni Malkin - He's been great all season and continues to lead the league in points.
Vezina: Tim Thomas - The feel good story of the NHL. A Journeyman AHL goalie who got his shot and now leads the league in Save Percentage and Goals Against this season.
Norris Trophy: Mike Green - You can't deny a 30 goal and 70 point season. He's also only the 8th D man in NHL history to hit that mark.
Calder Trophy: Steve Mason - Leads the league in Shutouts and is a big reason for the Jacket's success this season. A case could be made for the Vezina for him as well.
Selkey Trophy: Pavel Datsyuk - I just went with the Sportsnet choice on here because I really don't know who to pick.
Lady Byng: Pavel Datsyuk - Totally agree with Spector's take.
Jack Adams: Claude Julien - I don't agree but that's who will likely win it.
