Perunovich, who was selected 45th overall by the Blues in 2018, racked up six goals and 34 assists over 34 games in his third season with the Bulldogs.
Nine defensemen have won the award all time, including three of the last four, according to ESPN's Chris Peters. Colorado Avalanche rookie defenseman Cale Makar took home the honor last season.
