Please break down this sentence.
H,
Would you explain the underlined part for me?
It’s not all that hard, of course…being that a whole host of the NHL’s top hockey players are Oakley-equipped smashers rocking their high-tech O visors whenever they suit up for battle. So it was only fitting that some of O's best scooped up top honors at the NHL Awards Show in Las Vegas - lead by the Anaheim Ducks' Corey Perry, who grabbed the coveted Hart Trophy as the League's Most Valuable Player to his team. He also claimed the Maurice Richard Award for most goals during the season.
Thank you,
M
