Most Sportsmanlike Player
The Most Sportsmanlike Player award recognizes a player who combined strong on-ice performance with respect, discipline, and class. This award is not simply about having the fewest penalty minutes, but rather about playing hard, contributing to the team, and carrying oneself with maturity toward referees, opponents, and the game itself. The winner is expected to be a true gentleman with strong skills and a positive attitude, showing that competitiveness and sportsmanship can go hand in hand.
