Bruins' Patrice Bergeron wins 2022 Selke Trophy, breaks NHL record

We don't know what Patrice Bergeron's future holds. We do know he's one of the greatest two-way forwards in NHL history.

The Boston Bruins center was named 2021-22 Frank J. Selke Trophy winner Sunday, beating out Florida Panthers center Aleksander Barkov and Calgary Flames center Elias Lindholm.

Bergeron has now won the Selke Trophy -- awarded to the "forward who demonstrates the most skill in the defensive component of the game" -- five times, surpassing Hall of Fame forward Bob Gainey for the most in NHL history. This year marked the NHL-record 11th time that Bergeron was a finalist for the Selke Trophy.
