I'd be happy to have the GMs vote on all the awards.

Mark Giordano of the Calgary Flames has the Stanley Cup on his mind, but could also get some other hardware at the NHL Awards in June.
Giordano could become the fourth player aged 35 or older to win the Norris Trophy in its 65-season history; Nicklas Lidstrom did it four times, Doug Harvey three times, and Al MacInnis once.
The 35-year-old finished second among defenseman in scoring with 74 points (17 goals, 57 assists), his NHL career high, and led the League with a plus-39 rating. He was an even or plus-rated player in 58 of 78 games this season.
That's why a panel of 21 NHL.com writers voted Giordano the winner of the Norris Trophy. He was the only player named on each of the 21 ballots and finished well ahead of Brent Burns of the San Jose Sharks and Morgan Rielly of the Toronto Maple Leafs.

"There's definitely a positive influence in our room, especially amongst the young 'D'," Flames coach Bill Peters said. "You don't want to be a young 'D' cutting your teeth in this League and all of a sudden, you're off the ice before him all the time, you're out of the rink before him all the time.
"When you're at the rink be productive, and that's what he is. He's very productive with the use of his time."
