It might eventually happen. Althought Bettman probably has no idea who Orr is and would probably rename it Nicklas Lidstrom Award.
One thing I always loved about hockey was they really honored their history. Growing up with Patrick Division, Campbell Conference, Adams Division, etc made me want to find out who those guys were. Its a shame it was done way with.
