Former NHL forward Daniel Alfredsson will be a special guest presenter at the NHL Awards.

The Ottawa Senators revealed Tuesday that their former captain will present the Calder Trophy to the league's top rookie at the televised ceremony on June 24 in Las Vegas.

Alfredsson won the award in 1996 after scoring 26 goals and adding 35 assists in 82 games.

The nominees for this year's Calder Trophy are Senators forward Mark Stone, Calgary Flames winger Johnny Gaudreau, and Florida Panthers defenseman Aaron Ekblad.

Alfredsson retired in December after joining the Senators for one final pregame warmup.

He notched 1,157 points in 1,246 career contests over 18 NHL seasons.
