This is a list of Arizona Coyotes award winners. It also includes players and data from the previous incarnation of the franchise, the original Winnipeg Jets (1972–96).
The National Hockey League All-Star Game is a mid-season exhibition game held annually between many of the top players of each season. Thirty All-Star Games have been held since the Arizona Coyotes entered the NHL as the Winnipeg Jets in 1979, with at least one player chosen to represent the Coyotes in each year except 2003. The All-Star game has not been held in various years: 1979 and 1987 due to the 1979 Challenge Cup and Rendez-vous '87 series between the NHL and the Soviet national team, respectively, 1995, 2005, and 2013 as a result of labor stoppages, and 2006, 2010, and 2014 because of the Winter Olympic Games.[23] The franchise has yet to host one of the games.
The Lester Patrick Trophy has been presented by the National Hockey League and USA Hockey since 1966 to honor a recipient's contribution to ice hockey in the United States.[67] This list includes all personnel who have ever been employed by the Arizona Coyotes in any capacity and have also received the Lester Patrick Trophy.
Members of the Arizona Coyotes franchise honored with the Lester Patrick Trophy
The Arizona Coyotes do not retire jersey numbers.[76] Instead, seven numbers are honored via the induction of players into the Coyotes' Ring of Honor.[77]Bobby Hull's number 9 (February 19, 1989) and Thomas Steen's number 25 (May 6, 1995) were retired while the franchise was in Winnipeg.[78] Hull's number was un-retired by his request prior to the 2005–06 season so his son Brett could wear it.[79] Hull and Wayne Gretzky, then entering his first season as head coach of the Coyotes, were the first two players inducted into the Coyotes' Ring of Honor on October 8, 2005.[79][80] Gretzky — whose number 99 was retired league-wide on February 6, 2000[81] — did not play for the Coyotes franchise during his 20-year NHL career and the only player in franchise history to wear the number prior to its league-wide retirement was Rick Dudley during the 1980–81 season.[82][83]
The Man of the Year Award is an annual award given for a player's "dedication, commitment and passion for bettering the lives of those in the community."[85][86]
The Three-Star Award is an annual award given to the player who earns the most points from Star of the Game selections throughout the regular season.[85]
The Beth Champie Memorial Award was an annual award given to the player "who demonstrates the most dedication to the fans throughout the season."[85][87] It was last awarded in 2011.[85]
^Scott was voted in as a member of the Arizona Coyotes. A trade on January 15 saw Scott moved to the Montreal Canadiens, and sent down to their AHL affiliate. On January 19, the NHL announced it would allow Scott to captain the Pacific Division All-Stars, despite no longer playing for a Pacific Division team (or even an NHL team).[54] However, as a result of the trade, Scott will wear a generic jersey, and will not be a representative for Arizona; Arizona, as a result of trading away its only All-Star, will be the only team not represented in the events.[55]
