After playing key roles in orchestrating a record-setting regular season, Patrice Bergeron, Jim Montgomery and Linus Ullmark all took home impressive individual accolades during the 2023 NHL Awards on Monday night in Nashville.
For the sixth time in his Hall-of-Fame career, Bergeron was named the winner of the Frank J. Selke Trophy — given out annually to the best defensive forward in the NHL.
No player in NHL history has won the Selke Trophy five or more times, with Bergeron building up his record-setting resume with his second Selke in as many seasons.
For the first time in his career, Ullmark took home the Vezina Trophy as the league’s top netminder.
