Well, the ones that won were the ones I figured would, although there were a few close calls, including Mike Richards coming within a few votes of taking home a well-deserved Selke as the league's top defensive forward. (It again went to Pavel Datsyuk.)

In the other biggies, Zdeno Chara won the Norris, Alex Ovechkin won the Hart and Pearson, Tim Thomas took the Vezina and Steve Mason won the Calder. Claude Julien was named coach of the year.

I don't have many quibbles with the teams, and I had to pull out my ballot to see if there were any major differences. I had Datsyuk on the first team, Malkin on the second, and Hossa on the first and Iginla on the second. I also had Duncan Keith instead of Boyle on the blueline and Roberto as the second-team goaltender.

The only difference on the all-rookie team was that T.J. Oshie was there instead of Berglund.

Pretty darn close, anyway.
