Nick wins another one…

Well….I forgot that the NHL awards were on last night…they were on Versus, after all, and I hate that channel with all of my being since I missed almost half of the Stanley Cup playoffs that were on it. What are the people that run the NHL thinking when they moved any games to that little channel? But that’s not what this is about…I just found out that Nick Lidstrom won the Norris trophy for the leagues best defenseman last night for the seventh time in his 20 year career, tying him for second on the all time list! I feel so fortunate to have watched him for his entire career and to have him back with the Wings for one more season….I have to agree with the team mates who have called him the “perfect person” since he is as good off the ice as he is on it….so, congrats, Nick, let’s do it again this year!
