Gladiator Best Defensive Forward
This award, named in honor of the former Boston College Athletics Director, is given to the Most Valuable Player in the Hockey East Championship Tournament, as voted by a panel of writers and broadcasters. Freshman goaltender Connor Hellebuyck (Commerce, Mich.) went 4-0-0 with a 0.99 GAA, a .944 save percentage and one shutout in his first league tournament. He allowed only four goals and registered 112 saves in four contests and allowed two goals or fewer in every start. He becomes the xx River Hawk to win Tournament MVP honors and is the sixth freshman to win the honor. Past freshman recipients of the award have been: Brian Leetch (BC-1987), Scott LaGrand (BC1990), Chuck Kobasew (BC-2001), Kieran Millan (BU-2009) and Johnny Gaudreau (BC-2012). A complete list of past winners is available on page 60.

Hockey East awards team trophies to the regular season champion(s) and to the tournament champion. UMass Lowell clinched their first Hockey East regular-season title in school history in the final night of the season with a 4-1 road victory vs. Providence on March 9 at Schneider Arena. The River Hawks followed that up with their first Hockey East Tournament Championship on March 23 at the TD Garden with a 1-0 shutout of Boston University. A complete list of the past winners is available on pages 27 (Regular-season) and 28 (Tournament).
