Here is everyone taking home trophies during the 2024 NHL Awards, as well as the players named to the first and second all-star teams and all-rookie team. The 2024 NHL Awards honoured the best of the best.
Some awards were handed out in the weeks leading up to the ceremony on 27 June. Five of the remaining player awards were announced on Thursday evening. Here are the finalists and winners for this season. Hart Trophy Winner: Nathan MacKinnon (Colorado) Runners-up: Nikita Kucherov (Tampa Bay), Connor McDavid (Edmonton) MacKinnon wins the first Hart Trophy of his career. In a year when a handful of NHL stars showed how valuable they were to their clubs, MacKinnon received 137 first-place votes on 194 ballots by members of the Professional Hockey Writers Association. MacKinnon's 140-point campaign is just the fifth in the NHL in the past 30 years. Ted Lindsay Award Winner: Nathan MacKinnon (Colorado) Runners-up: Nikita Kucherov (Tampa Bay), Auston Matthews (Toronto) This is MacKinnon's first time winning the Ted Lindsay Award, given to the NHL's most outstanding players as voted on by fellow members of the NHLPA. He was a finalist in 2017-18 and 2019-20 as well, but with 51 goals and 140 points, along with a 35-game home point streak that was the second-longest in NHL history, he clearly caught the attention of the players. Calder Trophy Winner: Connor Bedard (Chicago) Runners-up: Brock Faber (Minnesota), Luke Hughes (New Jersey) Bedard, 18, didn't disappoint in his rookie year after being drafted first over all in the 2023 NHL draft. He lived up to the hype, leading all rookies and Blackhawks team mates in goals (22), assists (39) and points (61) while playing 68 games.

Hellebuyck received 31 first-place votes and one second-place vote from NHL GMs in the voting for the league's goaltender of the year.
