Meredith Gaudreau surprises former Calgary Flames centre Sean Monahan with Bill Masterton Trophy for resilience and leadership

(AP Photo/Joe Maiorana) Columbus Blue Jackets centre Sean Monahan has been awarded the 2024-25 Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy, the NHL announced Thursday. The award honours perseverance, sportsmanship, and dedication to hockey, commemorating Bill Masterton, a Minnesota North Stars player who died from an on-ice injury in 1968, and is voted on annually by the Professional Hockey Writers Association. Monahan earned the trophy for his resilience and leadership after the tragic death of his close friend and teammate Johnny Gaudreau last August. He signed with Columbus last July to reunite with Gaudreau, with whom he played nine seasons in Calgary. Gaudreau and his brother Matthew were struck and killed by a driver charged with impaired driving while they were cycling in New Jersey on Aug. 29, 2024. Thursday on social media, the NHL posted a video of Gaudreau's wife Meredith surprising Monahan with the trophy. 'Sean stood by my side for every tribute, every walkout and I dragged him out there to cry with me on national TV so many times,' Gaudreau said. 'But I'm excited about this one because it celebrates Sean.' Monahan said it meant a lot to win the Masterton Trophy. 'It's a real big honour,' he said. 'There's a lot of big names on that trophy and the meaning behind it. 'It's something I take great pride in,' he added, 'being on an (NHL) team, being a father, a husband -- it's a special thing and obviously fresh now, but definitely something I'm going to be reflecting on a lot. 'John knows I don't like the spotlight,' Monahan added, 'or attention, so I feel like he's probably watching down on that moment laughing at me.' Monahan finished the season with 19 goals and 38 assists for 57 points in 54 games. Other finalists included Marc-Andre Fleury of Minnesota and Gabriel Landeskog of Colorado.

(AP Photo/Alaska Air National Guard) ANCHORAGE, Alaska — Mountaineering rangers in Alaska recovered the body of a Seattle man who died after falling 3,000 feet (about 900 meters) from a climbing route on Mount McKinley. Alex Chui's body was transferred to the state medical examiner Wednesday, the Denali National Park and Preserve said in a statement. Two other members of the 41-year-old's expedition on the West Buttress route to Peters Glacier reported Monday that Chui fell at a spot called Squirrel Point. They lowered over the edge as far as possible but were unable to see or hear Chui. He was not roped. Ground and air search crews were unable to reach the site until early Wednesday. An unroped French mountaineer fell to his death near the same location in 2010. His body was never recovered. The busiest time for climbing Mount McKinley is May and June. There are currently 500 climbers on the peak, North America's tallest. The Associated Press
