Lee of Islanders wins King Clancy Memorial Trophy | NHL.com

The forward had 37 points (20 goals, 17 assists) in 81 games this season, his 12th in the NHL, all with the Islanders. He was selected in the sixth round (No. 152) of the 2009 NHL Draft and has been captain since 2018.

Lee has been a King Clancy finalist six times in the past seven seasons. He’s the third Islanders player to win the award, joining Doug Weight (2011) and Bryan Trottier (1989).

The King Clancy Memorial Trophy is the fifth award to be handed out during the Stanley Cup Playoffs.

Aleksander Barkov of the Florida Panthers won the Frank J. Selke Trophy as the best defensive forward in the NHL on May 18, as voted by the Professional Hockey Writers Association.
