The NHL announced the three finalists for the Frank J. Selke Trophy this morning, and as has been the case for more than a decade, Patrice Bergeron is on the list.
Bergeron is joined by Florida's Aleksandr Barkov, who won last year, and Calgary's Elias Lindholm.
By pretty much every measure that matters, Bergeron should be a shoo-in to win his record-breaking fifth Selke Trophy.
Per the NHL’s and the Bruins’ press releases:
- Bergeron led the league in faceoff wins (991) and win percentage (61.9%).
- Bergeron’s SAT% (the league’s version of puck possession) was 65.
