Bryce Pickford continues to rack up the hardware.
The Montreal Canadiens prospect was named the CHL's Defenceman of the Year on Monday, adding to his trophy case after already winning WHL MVP and the league's top blue-liner award last month.
The 20-year-old Pickford was captain of the Medicine Hat Tigers this season and scored 45 goals and 83 points, with a plus-55 rating. His 45 goals placed second in the WHL and are the most by a defenceman in the league through the last 38 years.
Pickford and the Tigers advanced to the third round of the WHL playoffs but lost to the Prince Albert Raiders in six games. He was the second consecutive member of the Tigers to take home WHL MVP after Gavin McKenna won the award in 2025.
Montreal selected Pickford with the 81st overall pick in the 2025 NHL Draft.
