Jonathan Toews is your 2015 Mark Messier Leadership Award Winner! It couldn’t go to a more deserving player in the NHL! Jonathan Toews is Captain Serious and is the only current NHL Captain playing today that has led his team to three Stanley Cup Championships and has been able to hoist the Cup three times in his career.
The Finalist for the award were Ryan Getzlaf of the Anaheim Ducks and Andrew Ladd of the Winnipeg Jets. Both players had great seasons and led their teams to the Stanley Cup playoffs, but when the going gets tough, the tough get going and in Game #7 of the Western Conference Finals it was Jonathan Toews leading the Chicago Blackhawks to victory while Getzlaf had nothing left to fire back at him.
