Annual National Hockey League honor From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Remove ads

The National Hockey League All-Star teams were first named at the end of the 1930–31 NHL season, to honor the best performers over the season at each position.

Quick Facts Sport, League ...

Representatives of the Professional Hockey Writers' Association vote for the all-star team at the end of the regular season.

The career leader in selections is Gordie Howe, who was named to a total of 21 all-star teams (12 first, 9 second), all with the Detroit Red Wings. Alexander Ovechkin is the only player in history to be named to both all-star teams in the same season (as a left and right winger respectively) because of a voting error.[1] The career leader for the most selections as a player without being inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame is John LeClair, who was named to a total of 5 all-star teams (2 first, 3 second). Every winner of the Hart Memorial Trophy for the NHL's most valuable player was selected to one of that season's all-star teams, except Al Rollins in 1954 and Ted Kennedy in 1955 (though Kennedy was named to all-star teams in three prior seasons).
