  • Honors & Awards
    2009-10 WCHA MEN’S YEARBOOK HONORS & AWARDS WCHA PLAYER OF THE YEAR HISTORY OF THE AWARD ince 1960, the Western Collegiate Hockey Association has annually honored a confer- ence member team player deemed either as the league’s Most Valuable Player or as the Sleague’s Player of the Year. From 1960 to 1981, the league’s Most Valuable Player Award was administered by The Denver Post. The first winner of the MVP honor was forward Jerry Walker of Denver. Since 1981, the WCHA’s top individual on-ice award has been voted on by different com- binations of conference-member coaches, student-athletes, sports information directors, and media. In 1992, a vote of conference head coaches changed the official designation of the award from ‘WCHA Most Valuable Player’ to ‘WCHA Player of the Year’ in order to better describe the honor. Three players in 52 seasons have won the league’s top on-ice honor more than once … goaltender Murray McLachlan of Minnesota (1969, 1970), forward Doug Palazzari of Colorado College (1972, 1974), and forward Brian Bonin of Minnesota (1995, 1996).
