So it’s that time of year where I predict the future. No long drawn out analysis this time around, just quick and to the point. Awards picks have a top three, italics indicate my winner pick. Notice the lack of Suglobov, Toronto fans; he’s a defensive liability and won’t finish the season on the big team. He may not finish this week on the big team.
