Sean Monahan has won the Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy. A well-deserved win for the best friend of Johnny Gaudreau. It's given annually to the player who best exemplifies the qualities of perseverance, sportsmanship, and dedication to hockey.

Monahan becomes the first Blue Jacket to win the award. He posted 19 goals and 57 points this past season. 

For Monahan, it was a tough season for sure. Before the season started, he lost his friend, and then he suffered a wrist injury that kept him out for a couple months. 

Sean Monahan deserved this award. 

The video posted by the NHL is amazing. 

Congrats to Sean Monahan.
