ESPN's NHL Insider Greg Wyshynski recently released his "NHL Awards Watch," projecting who was in the lead for each award. And the Avalanche fared well, thanks in part to what has become one of the most dominant runs in NHL history to date.
The Avs are a team on a mission with a league-best 44 points and a 19-1-6 record. The Avalanche also have an eye-popping plus-50 goal differential with 106 goals scored and 56 allowed, easily making them the best team in the NHL.
So, naturally, quite a few of their players will be in line for some major awards if this keeps up.
