I agree with all your picks, except Coach of the Year: Laviolette. How could he not win this award?

 

[rdlviper]

Yeah you might be right with Laviolette. My only thing with them, is that they ended the season very poorly. I think he failed to integrate guys like Doug Weight into their team...

 

[Hkyfn]

They ended the season poorly? The Canes? Huh? They won their division handily, finished 2nd in their conference, and barely missed finishing first in their conference, as well as the league. I don't agree, and considering where this team came from, the bowels of the league the previous season, I think that Laviolette winning COTY is a no brainer.

We'll see.....
