Caps receive votes for the Selke Trophy
Tom Wilson, Aliaksei Protas, and rookie Justin Sourdif all received votes for the Selke Award, awarded to the best defensive forward in the NHL. Wilson finished 24th, but for him to be recognized for his defensive skills says a lot about how he is currently viewed by the league. He's mean and tough, but his skating, strength, reach, and speed make him a nightmare to play against. It's great to see Big Pro get some recognition as well. He and Wilson on the penalty kill are damn good and make it hard for opposing teams to play against the Caps. That Sourdif got votes was surprising, but not that much. Apparently, his strong rookie season didn't go unnoticed.
Will Dylan Larkin end up in DC?
