Ryan O'Reilly Nominated For Masterton Trophy For Some Inexplicable Reason
Sometimes it feels like the release of each team’s Masterton nominee is timed right for the slow end of the regular season, just before the final few must-win games, to give the writers (who pick the nominees and vote on a winner) something to write and argue about.
