The second biggest moment of the year for the hockey community is finally upon us. Tonight, the best and brightest stars in the National Hockey League descended upon Sin City for the 2018 NHL Awards. A number of Tampa Bay Lightning players and executives have been nominated for awards tonight.
The first category of the night a Tampa Bay Lightning player was nominated for was the James Norris Memorial Trophy, which is awarded to the league’s top defenseman. Representing the Lightning in this category is defenseman Victor Hedman.
If you ask anyone here in the Bolts Nation who was going to bring home the award, they would’ve said Hedman, hands down.
