As has been previously noted by Mike Vogel and On Frozen Blog, the Hockey Hall of Fame has announced that Caps beat writer Dave Fay of the Washington Times has been designated as this year's recipient of the Elmer Ferguson Award.
Fay will get the award during a November luncheon that's part of Hall of Fame Induction Weekend from November 9-12, 2007.
Over this past season, I got a chance to rub elbows with Dave, and it's clear just how much the players and the organization respect his work and dedication to the Caps beat. Congratulations to Dave on some well deserved recognition that's been a long time coming.


Maybe in another 10-15 years a blogger will win the Ferguson award!
