"Already a finalist for the Hart Trophy as the NHL's most valuable player, Ducks winger Corey Perry was named as one of three final contenders for the Ted Lindsay Award as the most outstanding player as selected by the union membership.

Perry joins Vancouver's Daniel Sedin and Tampa Bay's Steven Stamkos as finalists for the award, which was the Lester B. Pearson Award until it was renamed in 2009 to honor the Hall of Famer Lindsay for his role in establishing the players' union.

All three are finalists for the players' honor for the first time. Washington Capitals superstar Alex Ovechkin has been the recipient of the last three awards."
