[Nakor BlueRider]

The awards went to:<
><
>Hart Memorial Trophy, MVP -- Jose Theodore, Montreal<
><
>Vezina Trophy, goaltender -- Jose Theodore, Montreal<
><
>James Norris Memorial Trophy, defenseman -- Nicklas Lidstrom, Detroit<
><
>Calder Memorial Trophy, rookie -- Dany Heatley, Atlanta<
><
>Frank J. Selke Trophy, defensive forward -- Michael Peca, N.Y. Islanders<
><
>Lady Byng Memorial Trophy, most gentlemanly -- Ron Francis, Carolina<
><
>Jack Adams Award, coach -- Bob Francis, Phoenix<
><
>King Clancy Trophy, humanitarian contribution to hockey -- Ron Francis, Carolina<
><
>Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy, perserverance, sportsmanship and dedication to hockey -- Saku Koivu, Montreal <
><
>Art Ross Trophy, points scoring leader -- Jarome Iginla, Calgary<
><
>Maurice Richard Trophy, goal-scoring leader -- Jarome Iginla, Calgary<
><
>William M. Jennings Trophy, goalies with fewest goals against, minimum 25 games -- Patrick Roy, Colorado<
><
>Lester B. Pearson Award, outstanding player -- Jarome Iginla, Calgary<
><
><
>So let's see. Jarome Iginla was the goal-scoring leader, points scoring leader, AND outstanding player award winner, and he played for the Flames who weren't anywhere near the playoffs-- that's impressive. Jose Theodore as MVP and best goaltender is a surprise, Patrick Roy with the fewest goals against is not. Koivu's award for "perserverance, sportsmanship and dedication to hockey" could have been seen kilometres away, while Bob Francis was a shock. Ron Francis on the other hand is quite deserving.<

Jose theodore is a really good goalie! if they traded him to Calgary with jarome over there already!! MAN THAT TEAM WOULD BE PRETTY GOOD!!!! <i></i>

[Nakor BlueRider]

Maybe a better idea would be to put Iginla on the Canadiens team. I don't think that the Flames are capable of being a good team... O_O At least not for a long time anyway... <i></i>

yea true but getting the rites to joseph was pretty good <i></i>
