1. Frank J. Selke Trophy – Patrice Bergeron
Over his Hall of Fame, 16-year NHL career, Bergeron has won the Selke Trophy a record-tieing four times. His most recent being in 2016-17.
Bergeron has been in the top-five for the Selke in each of his last 11 seasons and has been top-three for the last nine seasons. Last season, 2019-20, he was the runner-up to Philadephia Flyers center Sean Couturier for the award.
Although Bergeron is now 35 years old, he has yet to lose a step when it comes to any part of his game.
There hasn’t been a season where he hasn’t been on pace for 50+ points and he’s only had one season where his plus/minus (+/-) has been negative. Additionally, Bergeron is consistently one of the best when it comes to faceoffs and always has more takeaways than turnovers.
Bergeron winning a record-breaking fifth Selke in 2020-21 isn’t a lock to happen, however, it definitely is the most likely to happen out of all the five awards on this list.
The Selke is awarded to the best defensive forward in the NHL, and Bergeron is definitely still one of them.
