[TheScorpion]

Yeah, why not? Let's do it again. It's time for our annual awards, presented by myself, TheScorpion (Islanders GM), for the second year now!

Here are the awards up for grabs. I've decided to shorten up the number of player-focused awards in favour of a couple more GM-oriented awards.

The Cliff Fletcher Award: presented to the league's best General Manager in 2017-18.

The Doug Risebrough Award: presented to the General Manager determined to have made the worst trade(s) over the course of the 2017-18 season.

The D'Arcy McGrath Award: presented to the General Manager adjudged to be the best message board poster.

The Darryl Sutter Award: presented to the league's best rookie General Manager.

The Lanny McDonald Award: presented to the player deemed to be the Calgarypuck Hockey League's MVP.

The Gary Suter Award: presented to the Calgarypuck Hockey League's best defenseman.

The Mike Vernon Award: presented to the Calgarypuck Hockey League's best goaltender.

In addition, as mentioned, I have decided to create a couple of new awards this season.

The George McPhee Award: presented to the GM of the Calgarypuck Hockey League's most surprising team.

The Peter Chiarelli Award: presented to the GM of the Calgarypuck Hockey League's most disappointing team.

Ballot info will be posted shortly -- it will not be as confusing as last year's. Happy offseason!
