Maurice 'Rocket' Richard Trophy
The Maurice Richard Trophy is an annual award given to the National Hockey
League's top goal scorer by the NHL Board of Governors. Winners are selected
based on regular-season play.
The Maurice Richard Trophy, officially unveiled on Jan. 24, 1999, was a gift to
the NHL from the Canadiens to honor the first player in League history to score
50 goals in 50 games, 50 goals in a season and 500 in a career.
