The Hart Memorial Trophy was presented to the National Hockey League in 1923 by Dr. David Hart. Dr. Hart was the father of Cecil Hart, the former coach and manager of the Montreal Canadiens. Cecil Hart coached the Canadiens between 1926-27 and 1938-39, winning back-to-back Stanley Cup championships in 1930 and 1931.
The trophy is presented to the most valuable player in the National Hockey League during the regular season. Voting is conducted by the members of the Professional Hockey Writers’ Association. The initial winner was Frank Nighbor of the Ottawa Senators, awarded the Hart at the conclusion of the 1923-24 season. Wayne Gretzky has collected the most Harts-nine in total, with eight from his days as an Edmonton Oiler and one as a King in Los Angeles.

Only one lousy vote for Iginla? I guess I'm the only one who took quality of linemates into consideration.

Bah, Jumbo Joe was trying to drag the rotting carcasses of the Sharks to the playoffs down the stretch while Nash was nursing his sore groin or whatever. Not that I'm bitter or anything.

Shane Doan is the 2010-2011 Hart Memorial Trophy winner. The equally big Canadian boy pulled 46 goals out of his ass along with 84 points, a +17, 209 hits and a Stanley Cup which shouldn't have affected the voting. He also helped dozens of old ladies cross the street and never cut in line even when he was in a rush.
