Player Awards | Award Description |
| Most Improved Player | This is awarded to the Player that has exhibited the greatest growth in hockey skills, on-ice knowledge and overall performance from the beginning of the season to the end |
| Top Scorer | This goes to the Player with the most points during regular season league play |
| Best Defenseman | Awarded to the most outstanding all round defenseman on the team |
| Oiler Award | This award goes to the Player who best exemplifies the Oiler spirit of determination, teamwork, coach-ability and dedication |
| Most Valuable Player | This award goes to the Player whose contributions meant the most to the team. It is not necessarily the best Player on the team, although it could be, but is the Player in whose absence the team’s performance would suffer most |
| Markus Lavallee Memorial Award | It will be awarded to the player that is deemed to have consistently exhibited the qualities that made Markus such a special, loved and respected person. Markus would be proud to know that this scholarship will be awarded to the teammate who most exemplifies dedication to his family, team, community and personal development. In so doing we will continue to remember Markus for his kindness, caring, compassion and positive energy for a game he dearly loved. This dedicated teammate will also model work ethic, enthusiasm and determination in striving to achieve both personal and team goals. In so doing they will inspire and encourage others to want to better themselves. Like Markus, this teammate will also model respect and support for others, including opposing players, coaches, fans and game officials. In leading by example, this player will always choose to do the right thing, especially when others are not looking. Playing like Markus means playing with heart and never giving up on your teammates or yourself. As we continue to move forward into this hockey season and beyond we want players to aspire to be the best they can be as true leaders both on and off the ice. |
