Every winner from the 2018 NHL Awards
The Golden Knights were the big winners at the NHL Awards in Las Vegas on Wednesday night, but there were plenty of other deserving recipients.
Here are all the winners from this year's ceremony:
Ted Lindsay Award
Connor McDavid wasn't a finalist for the Hart Trophy, but he did take home the next-best thing, capturing the Lindsay Award as the league's most outstanding player - as voted on by his peers - for the second consecutive year, and becoming the first to win it twice before the age of 22.
James Norris Memorial Trophy
Tampa Bay Lightning blue-liner Victor Hedman narrowly nabbed the Norris, earning the honor as the NHL's best defenseman and edging out Drew Doughty in a relatively close vote.
King Clancy Trophy
Daniel and Henrik Sedin added one final piece of hardware to their extensive trophy cases, earning the award that recognizes humanitarian contributions.
Calder Memorial Trophy
In one of the night's few virtual locks, Mathew Barzal of the New York Islanders took home the Calder after leading all first-year players with 85 points.
Lady Byng Memorial Trophy
William Karlsson snagged this one after finishing his breakout 43-goal regular season with only 12 penalty minutes.
Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy
New Jersey Devils forward Brian Boyle was a worthy recipient of the 2018 Masterton Trophy after overcoming a leukemia diagnosis in training camp and returning to score 10 goals in his first 25 games.
EA Sports NHL 19 cover athlete
P.K. Subban will be on the cover of EA Sports' NHL franchise for the first time after being named the poster boy for NHL 19.
Frank J. Selke Trophy
Los Angeles Kings star forward Anze Kopitar denied Boston Bruins center Patrice Bergeron of a record fifth Selke and won it for the second time in his career.
Jack Adams Award
Golden Knights head coach Gerard Gallant was the obvious choice here after helping Vegas become the most successful NHL expansion team ever.
Mark Messier Leadership Award
Vegas defenseman and resident Deryk Engelland earned this honor - given annually to the player who exemplifies great leadership qualities to his team on and off the ice during the regular season, and plays a role in his community growing the game of hockey - for being a fixture in the community following the tragic shooting in Las Vegas and for his leadership with the Golden Knights.
Vezina Trophy
Nashville Predators goaltender Pekka Rinne captured the Vezina for the first time in his career.
GM of the Year
The accolades just kept pouring in for the Golden Knights, and general manager George McPhee was the clear choice here, after overseeing the construction of the best NHL expansion roster of all time.
Willie O'Ree Community Hero Award
Late Humboldt Broncos coach Darcy Haugan was the inaugural recipient of this honor, which is presented to the individual who, through the game of hockey, has positively impacted his or her community, culture, or society.
Haugan died in the bus crash that killed 16 Broncos players and staff members back in April.
Hart Memorial Trophy
New Jersey Devils star Taylor Hall claimed the final award of the night, edging out Colorado Avalanche dynamo Nathan MacKinnon.
