Ken McKenzie Trophy
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Ken McKenzie Trophy is awarded to the Central Hockey League rookie of the year as selected by the CHL coaches. It was previously called the Rookie of the Year award until the 1977-78 season. However, this is awarded annually to the leading points scorer in the Central Hockey League (1992-) in the United States. The trophy is presented to the player with the most points in the regular season.
In the International Hockey League, it is also awarded to the best American-born player.
