James Norris Memorial Trophy
The James Norris Memorial Trophy is an annual award given to the defense player
who demonstrates throughout the season the greatest all-round ability in the
position. The winner is selected in a poll of the Professional Hockey Writers'
Association at the end of the regular season.
The James Norris Memorial Trophy was presented in 1953 by the four children of
the late James Norris in memory of the former owner-president of the Detroit
Red Wings.
