Cyrus H. McLean Trophy

The Cyrus H. McLean Trophy is an award given to the annual leading point-scorer of the Vancouver Canucks of the National Hockey League (NHL). It is one of six annual team awards that are presented on the last home game of the regular season. It is named after Cyrus H. McLean who was the former team President of the WHL Vancouver Canucks from 1968-70. The trophy was first presented in the Canucks first season, 1970–71, and has been awarded every NHL season since.

Markus Naslund has won the award the most times, leading the Canucks in scoring seven consecutive years, from 1999 to 2006. Of all the winners in the history of the trophy, six-time recipient Henrik Sedin recorded the most prolific season with 112 points in 2009–10, eclipsing four-time winner Pavel Bure's 110-point mark from 1992–93. In the nine seasons from 2006–07 to 2014–15, the Cyrus H. McLean has been retained by the Sedin twins, with Henrik leading scoring in 2007–08, 2009–10, 2011–12, 2012–13 and 2013–14, while his brother Daniel has won in 2006–07, 2010–11, 2014–15, and 2015–16. In 2008–09, they tied for the team lead in point-scoring (though Daniel had more goals).
