He’s such a dark horse, call him “Black Beauty”. (The book)

[RebuildinVan]

No such thing as dark horses at the NHL level

Taylor Hall and Jose Theodore were definitely not Hart trophy front runners when they won

These are not out of the question.

 

[hangman005]

Plausible...... damn

Puts away random goalie for the Rocket Richard Guess.

 

[Rabid Ranger]

Aside from the Rocket which is pure production based, most of these rewards involve reputation and a body of work over time to.a certain degree. For a dark horse to emerge they would need to be exceptional. For the sake of this discussion I would go with a guy like Jake Sanderson for the Norris.

 

[Edgelord]

Yakemchuk for the calder and norris

 

[Crow]

Brandon Saad for byng

 

[PaulD]

Sure there is

Paceriotty winning the Rocket.

 

[Rob Brown]

Kaprizov winning the Hart.

He 100% deserves more consideration for the Hart and if the Wild make the playoffs I think he'll be up there in voting. Guy is severely underrated around the league. I think if he plays the full season he should also crack 50 goals and finish towards the top in the Rocket Race.

 

[Sniper99]

Ryan Reaves for Lady Byng. Hes due

 

[My3Sons]

I always thought that the vocals on Dark Horse were not as bad as generally thought. Not sure if that is worth an award though.

 

[Hoochi Papa]

It's definitely one of the worst songs in otherwise essential Katy Perry album. To make his question easier to understand, OP should've asked for Walking on Air or Double Rainbow Award winner. Now it's a bit too esoteric to me. Like who is going to bring everyone down?

That's easy, Josh Anderson.

 

[Mogo]

It's been at least 2 days since we had this same thread pop up

 

[Derailed75]

Those aren't dark horses, Tom Wilson for the Byng, now that's a dark horse.
