Defensive Award Update: I have put together a couple of groups with some of the best SHL minds on the site to see if a 2nd defensive award was possible and or nessesary. Through a season of discussion we did come up with a criteria for a defensive defenseman award. I also through out a discord poll and the results indicated a luke warm reception for a new D-Man award. There are a few issues to work out though...  researching the data for this award requires more work then other awards as 1 or 2 of the criteria would require the adding/subtracting of 2 attributes to obtain a number. without putting in the work it would be hard to put forth the right nominees. One of the options is creating an internal program/tool for the awards committee to use which can give us those results. Ill look into that this season, but if there are anyone who has that capability willing to help.. look me up!
