JOHN WOODS / THE CANADIAN PRESS FILESANAHEIM, Calif. – Bryan Little isn’t the flashiest member of the Winnipeg Jets but his enduring professionalism and dedication to excellence was rewarded Saturday afternoon.
The Winnipeg chapter of the Professional Hockey Writers Association named Little as the Jets’ nominee for the Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy, an honour handed out annually to the player who demonstrates qualities of perseverance, sportsmanship and dedication to hockey.
The award honours Bill Masterton, a Winnipegger and former member of Minnesota North Stars, who died on Jan. 15, 1968 as the result of injuries sustained in a game.
