It is basically the little brother to the Masterton, but focuses on community service. I'm cheering for Gio, of course, but this one should go to Subban.

So it's an off-ice Masterton?
Hmm. Gio seems to fit that bill.

Pretty sure PK's $10M donation to the Montreal Children's Hospital locks this one up for him.

Nothing against Gio, but Subban donated 10 million bucks to the Montreal Children's Hospital.

Absolutely. As much as I like Gio, it's pretty hard to compete with that.
Great guys all around though.

Subban deserves the award for sure after his contributions both monetarily and time wise
