The hockey world will converge on Las Vegas next week for the annual NHL Awards ceremony as the National Hockey League reveals the winners of regular-season awards like the Hart, Norris, Vezina and Calder trophies, among others.
This year’s event, held Wednesday, June 24, inside the MGM Grand Garden Arena, will be a bit short in star power as compared to previous years. And it’s a good thing the Blackhawks won the biggest trophy of them all because Jonathan Toews is the only member of the Stanley Cup champs who is a finalist for any award.

The ceremony begins at 7 p.m. ET and will be broadcast on NBC Sports Network in the U.S. and Sportsnet in Canada.
