Buffalo Sabres Hart Trophy: Tyler Ennis

For me, there is little to no doubt that the Hart Trophy as Most Valuable Player for the Buffalo Sabres during the 2014-2015 season is awarded to center Tyler Ennis.

Ennis was one of a small handful of players on the Sabres to appear in 78 games this season, second-most on the team only to Deslauriers, who appeared in every game.

Ennis led the Sabres in points this season, with 46. He also had a team-best 20 goals.

Two more spots where Ennis led the Sabres: power-play points and shots on goal. Seventeen of Ennis’ 46 points came on the power-play, including six of his 20 goals. He also had a team-high 185 shots on goal.

Runner-up: Matt Moulson, who registered 41 points in 77 games, including a team-high 28 assists. Moulson had 11 power-play points and two game-winners (matching Ennis in that statistic). He also had 156 shots on goal and averaged 17:41/game.
