The NHL finally released a more complete list of performers and presenters for the annual NHL Awards Show that will be held at the Pearl Concert Theater at The Palms in Las Vegas next Wednesday night at 6:30 p.m. CDT.
Actor and comedian Jay Mohr will serve as host for the awards show. Previously announced entertainment includes actor Mark Wahlberg, Snoop Dogg, Florida rockers Shinedown, and the world famous Cirque du Soleil.
Other presenters and guests include from Hollywood, actors Jamie Kennedy, John Slattery, Kevin Zegers, and Leven Rambin; director D.B. Sweeney; music producer Travis Barker, and producer Jerry Bruckheimer.
From the TV world comes CBC host Ron MacLean, CBC’s George Stroumboulopoulos, and Reese Waters, host of “The Daily Line”. Former NHLers Luc Robitaille, Jeremy Roenick, Guy Lafleur and Eddie Olczyk also will present awards.
At 4:00 local Vegas time, there will be a red carpet event in front of the Palm's main entrance where all nominees, entertainers and presenters will parade past throngs of onlookers before entering the theater for the show itself.
For those looking for a last minute quick trip, tickets are still available for the show and star-studded after party at the Palms Pool and Bungalows. The show will be broadcast live on Versus Network in the US and on the CBC in Canada.
Puck Daddy has an interesting take on Jay "hockey sucks" Mohr being named host.
