Vancouver Canucks captain Henrik Sedin won the King Clancy Memorial Trophy for leadership on and off the ice and noteworthy humanitarian contribution to the community Wednesday night at the NHL Awards.
Sedin's impact on the Canucks is obvious as the franchise leader in games played, assists and points, but his work in the Vancouver community earned him the award.
He opened Sedin Corner in Rogers Arena, which is a 14-person suite exclusively donated to the charity groups for every home game.
Furthermore, along with his brother and linemate, Daniel, Sedin contributed to a donation of $1.5 million dollars to help fund a new children's hospital in 2010.
