Jacques Lemaire Minnesota Wild
Getting the 3rd year Wild into the playoffs with the league’s lowest payroll is too big accomplishment to overlook for Lemaire who won an Adams trophy with the Devils in 1994.
Barrett Jackman St. Louis Blues
Barrett Jackman showed the poise of a veteran as the Blues struggled to find a steady goalie and played without former Norris and Hart Winner Chris Pronger.
Jere Lehtinen Dallas Stars
The best 2-way forward Lehtinen reclaims the Selke Trophy after a 3-year drought for his 3rd Selke becoming just the 3rd player to win the award 3 times.
Al MacInnis St. Louis Blues
The old veteran captures with hard slap shot captures the Norris Trophy for the 2nd time as the Blues still won without Chris Pronger, while using 7 different goalies.
Martin Brodeur New Jersey Devils
Winning 40 games for the record 4th time in his career while leading the Devils to another division title it is clearly Brodeur turn to finally claim his Vezina prize.
Peter Forsberg Colorado Avalanche
As the Avalanche made a late charge from behind to capture their 9th straight division title Forsberg made a late run to capture the NHL scoring title to edge out Marcus Naslund for the Hart.
These are not just mere prediction but whom I believe should win the said awards. Selected by Frank Fleming on April 8, 2003 at 1:25 am EST
