Tonight was the NHL Award Show in Las Vegas to reveal the winners of the league's hardware. The usual names took home some trophies, but it was good to see the media reward Henrik Sedin with the Hart Trophy for his incredible play this season, even though the other candidates for the MVP were named Crosby and Ovechkin. The show was much more entertaining this year, with decent comedic value from host Jay Mohr and musical performances by the Goo Goo Dolls and Shinedown. But this sketch, featuring Ryan Getzlaf and Bobby Ryan of the Anaheim Ducks stole the show.
As I've written before, the NHL truly has some gifted commercial-makers and video producers. While the league gets a ton of heat for supposed poor marketing, I haven't seen anything nearly this funny by any of the other professional leagues. Ryan and Getzlaf were fantastic, and this video will be watched by hockey fans around the world thousands of times in the next 24 hours.
