The two night NHL award ceremony kicked off last night. Columbus Blue Jackets captain Nick Foligno stole the show and took home the top awards of the evening.
The Captain of the Columbus Blue Jackets won the Mark Messier Leadership award and King Clancy award. Both are well earned and if anyone in the NHL deserves the recognition, its Foligno.
