The full roster of players will be determined by the National Hockey League.
This year's ballot will include enhanced interactive features, all designed to simplify the player search options for fans, including filtering and sorting by real-time statistics, position, team and a player's trending status.

"Opening the pool of players on the ballot will allow our fans to recognize those exceptional players that help make every game enjoyable."
