Vancouver's Mike Gillis, Nashville's David Poile and Tampa Bay's Steve Yzerman are finalists for the NHL's general manager of the year award, the league announced Wednesday. Yzerman, the former Red Wings star, is in his first season as an NHL general manager. He made several key moves to lead the Lightning to their first postseason berth in four seasons, including the Jan. 1 trade that brought goalie Dwayne Roloson to town.
