The Professional Hockey Writers’ Association revealed all the NHL players nominated for the 2025 Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy. 

The Masterton Trophy is awarded to the player “who best exemplifies the qualities of perseverance, sportsmanship, and dedication to hockey."

A PHWA local chapter for each of the 32 teams nominates one player to be put up for contention for the award. The top three players with the most votes will be finalists. The Masterton Trophy will be awarded during the Stanley Cup final, along with all the other awards being presented. 

Last season, Arizona Coyotes goaltender Connor Ingram earned the Masterton Trophy. He nearly retired because of his off-ice battles with obsessive compulsive disorder and lingering depression. 

After entering the NHL/NHLPA Players Assistance Program in early 2021 and getting claimed off waivers by the Coyotes in October 2022, he played two solid seasons for Arizona. Last season, he recorded six shutouts, tied for the best in the NHL.
