Who will win tonight's NHL awards?

With Tuesday being an off-day in the Stanley Cup Final, the 2022 NHL Awards take place in Tampa Bay as the winners of the Calder Memorial Trophy, Hart Memorial Trophy, James Norris Memorial Trophy, Ted Lindsay Award and Vezina Trophy will be revealed.

The underdog in this race will be New York Rangers goalie Igor Shesterkin. The 26-year-old led the NHL in goals-against average (2.07) and save percentage (.935) with six shutouts and an impressive 36-13-4 record. 

Victor Hedman, Tampa Bay LightningRoman Josi, Nashville PredatorsCale Makar, Colorado Avalanche

If this was a playoff award, Colorado Avalanche stud Cale Makar could very well be a lock for the NHL's best defenceman honour with the 23-year-old recording 26 points over 17 games so far this postseason and time still left to add to his tally. 

However, the voters decided on the winner of the James Norris Memorial Trophy at the conclusion of the regular season, making a correct prediction much tougher. 

Makar sill has a great chance of winning after scoring 28 goals and 58 assists over 77 games in 2021-22, just his fourth season with the Avs, but will be contested by
