The NHL Awards are here to get us through the last dying embers of the week before the draft. We've got super-big hockey fan Will Arnett hosting this shindig while probably reminding us that he's in a big movie coming up soon. Something about Claude Lemieux's family or something. I don't know. I don't get out much.

I'll certainly be watching because it's either that or baseball anymore and the awards shows are always kind of funbarrassing for the league and the players, showcasing what kind of talent the NHL can draw in to host their awards show before showcasing how many of the players are really just taking a break from partying in Vegas to put on dress clothes and show up to the future home of the Black Knights.

If nothing else, it'll be worth it just to see what PK Subban is wearing.
