Patrick Kane won the Hart Trophy on Wednesday night, becoming the first player born and trained in the U.S. to be named the NHL's most valuable player.
The Chicago Blackhawks' NHL scoring champion received three trophies at the league's annual postseason awards show from the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino. He won the Ted Lindsay Award after his fellow players recognized him as the game's most outstanding player, and he also accepted the Art Ross Trophy in recognition of his 106-point season. Kane was the runaway winner of the Hart, getting 121 of the 150 first-place votes. Sidney Crosby finished second with 11 first-place votes, while Dallas' Jamie Benn was third.
