Doughty, who had 14 goals and 37 assists while playing in all 82 games, captured his first Norris Trophy in his third time as a finalist. He is the second player in franchise history to win the Norris, joining Rob Blake (1998).

Patrick Kane wins Ted Lindsay Award Patrick Kane has won the Ted Lindsay Award, given to the NHL's outstanding player in a vote of his peers in the players' union.

Jaromir Jagr takes Masterton Trophy Florida's Jaromir Jagr has won the Masterton Trophy for his perseverance, sportsmanship and dedication to hockey at the NHL Awards show.

The Czech veteran scored 66 points in his 22nd NHL season to lead the Panthers, who set franchise records with 47 wins and 103 points. Barry Trotz picks up Jack Adams Award Washington Capitals' Barry Trotz picked up the Jack Adams Award, presented to the top head coach of the year.

June 23, 20169 yr comment_202461 Mcdavid didn't play the full season. That's why he didn't win it. If he did win it would have been a joke of sorts. Panarin while not a pro hockey rookie was an nhl rookie and was the best rookie all season long
June 23, 20169 yr comment_202483 Regardless of games played, McDavid was the best new player in the league this past year and should have won.

June 23, 20169 yr comment_202487 Panarin deserved it. They could add a minimum games threshold if they want, I guess. Its part of the game. If you miss half the season but are the best player over-all you're not winning the Hart either. Plus, McDavid finished 3rd, so its not like it was a choice between Panarin or McDavid. He missed more than half the season so he simply wasnt going to be given a chance. Cant win bling in a sling.

I don't like that guys from other pro leagues can come in and be considered a rookie, but until they change it we'll still get the odd 24 year old rookie of the year.

Would you be okay with someone coming out of the AHL at 23 or 24 and winning it?
