I'm not one for award shows, so I'll keep this one brief. I'm handing outthree major awards for the Blackhawks and there was a stiff competition for each. Here arethe awards and the breakdown.MVP: Patrick SharpThis one looked like a lock for Jonathan Toews, until he went down on February 20th with concussion-like symptoms. So with almost a quarter of the season missed, I've got to give it to a guy who would have given Johnny a run for MVP even if the captain had been healthy all year. Patrick Sharp had a slow start to this season, by his standards, scoring onlyfive goals in his first 18 games. Once he shook the rust off, he was razor sharp, scoring 28 times in the next 57 games. Even an ugly wrist injury that kept him out forthree weeks didn't slow him down. Honorable mention to Marian Hossa who does what he always does, play among the elite.Best Defenceman: Brent SeabrookIt's hard to upstage a former Norris Trophy winning defenceman, but Seabrook did it this year. Duncan Keith came on strong the last half of the season, but from beginning to end, Brent Seabrook was a beast. Top 10 in the league in hits, top 12 in blocked shots, and top 20 in time on ice. His 21 was second best on the team. He also tied his career high withnine goals. Hard to believe he's only 26 years of age.Best Rookie: Andrew ShawThe Blackhawks saweight different rookies make it into the lineup this year and they were all very good and should have long careers with the this team. But none had more of an impact than Andrew Shaw. Taken in the 5th round in the 2011 draft, he scored in his very first NHL game, then addedfour more over his nextseven games. It's not just the numbers, it's the passion, the grit, the surprising skill and elusiveness when he has the puck that really makes you watch him.If you wantto see some old school hockey, take a picture of Andrew Shaw. And it just goes to show you, it's not the size of the dog in the fight, but the size of the fight in the dog.
