Players take to Twitter to salute award winners
With the clock ticking down to the start of the NHL Awards show, players are taking to Twitter to wish good luck to their teammates and friends.
NHL players turned to Twitter to tip their helmets to the winners at Wednesday night's NHL Awards show in Las Vegas.

Among those saluting teammates who won awards was New York Rangers goaltender Martin Biron, who backs up the newest Vezina Trophy winner, Henrik Lundqvist.

Here is a collection of Tweets from around the League:
