Rob Riggle, Daughtry to headline 2015 NHL Awards
Time to roll out the red carpet because the National Hockey League is loading up on star power for the 2015 NHL Awards.
Actor / comedian Rob Riggle will host the event, while rock band Daughtry will perform during the show and entertain fans with a full concert after all the awards have been handed out, the NHL announced Wednesday.
Riggle has appeared in a host of Hollywood films and his television credits include Saturday Night Live and The Daily Show.
Daughtry - fronted by Chris Daughtry, the second runner-up from Season 5 of American Idol - has scored four number one hits and an equal number of GRAMMY nominations.
On top of that, several NHL players will be going home to the place where they belong with some serious hardware in tow.
The NHL Awards are set to take place on June 24 at the MGM Grand Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas.
