Laperriere wins NHL's hockey perseverance award
Share This Story
LAS VEGAS (AP)
Philadelphia Flyers forward Ian Laperriere won the NHL's Masterton Trophy for his perseverance, sportsmanship and dedication to hockey following a likely career-ending injury in 2010.
Laperriere topped fellow finalists Calgary's Daymond Langkow and Anaheim's Ray Emery during the NHL Awards ceremony.
Laperriere blocked a shot with his face during last year's playoffs, suffering a concussion and fractured orbital bone. He has said he wants to play again but doctors don't believe he should.
Emery went through bone-graft surgery last April. More than a year after a puck hit his spine and fractured a vertebra, Langkow returned to play on April 1.
