After last year’s dominance at the NHL Awards by Carey Price, this year will feature P.K. Subban as the only member of the Canadiens up for any hardware. Subban’s philanthropic work this year has seen him nominated for the NHL Foundation Player Award and with his massive donation to the Montreal Children’s Hospital he has to be considered a front runner.

The Habs Angle
Subban is the only player nominated this year after Carey Price collected four pieces of hardware last year. As stated it’s hard to see either Matt Martin or Mark Giordano beating out P.K. for the award this year with how much work Subban poured into the children’s hospital in Montreal.
