NZHL SEASON 1 AWARD WINNERS
With our first season in the books it's time to announce our complete list of individual skater award winners. All entries went through a rigorous voting system where YOU the community determined who was best fit to win each non-entirely stat based catagory. With that said, I give you the award class of NZHL season 1!
WINNERS
The Conn Smythe Trophy
The Conn Smythe Trophy is an annual award given to the most valuable player for his team in the playoffs. The winner is selected by the Professional Hockey Writers' Association at the conclusion of the final game in the Stanley Cup Final.
In 1966 Roger Crozier of the Detroit Red Wings won a Conn Smythe trophy for his performance in net in the finals even though his team was defeated by the Cup champion Montreal Canadians. In 1976 Reggie Leech earned the same nomination from the Flyers becoming the third player in history. Ron Hextal would recieve the same honor in 1987 and most recently J.S. Giguere of the Anaheim Ducks in 2003.
The NZHL Pioneers had a loaded offensive cast with the entire topline producing 52-54 points in 12 games, but our winner of the FIRST NZHL Conn Smythe will join the names above as a losing player who put up the most impressive numbers in the tournament.
