A Calgary Flames player is one of the top three vote-getters for one of the National Hockey League’s most prestigious awards. Forward Elias Lindholm was named as one of three finalists for the Frank J. Selke Trophy on Tuesday morning, alongside Florida’s Aleksander Barkov and Boston’s Patrice Bergeron. The trophy is awarded to the top defensive forward in the National Hockey League, as voted by members of the Professional Hockey Writers Association.

The NHL has announced the finalists for yet another of its end-of-year awards, the Frank J. Selke Trophy. Always a hotly contested and highly debated award, the Selke Trophy is voted on by the Professional Hockey Writers Association on the basis of “the forward who best excels in the defensive aspects of the game.”

The Selke Trophy, first awarded in 1977, is given "to the forward who best excels in the defensive aspects of the game." Barkov, last year's honoree, was third in the NHL with four shorthanded goals and led the Panthers in average time-on-ice per game (20:18). He finished a +36, fourth-best in the NHL among forwards, behind only Calgary's trio of Matthew Tkachuk (+57), Elias Lindholm (+61), and Johnny Gaudreau (+64).

Lindholm scored a goal on two shots, dished an assist and added four hits in Wednesday's 9-6 win over the Oilers in Game 1.

Through eight playoff outings, Lindholm is at seven points, 20 shots, 14 hits and a minus-2 rating.

Lindholm notched an assist, three shots on goal and two blocked shots in Sunday's 3-2 overtime win over the Stars in Game 7.

The 27-year-old Lindholm finished the first round with three goals, two assists, 18 shots on net, 10 hits, seven blocked shots and a minus-3 rating in seven appearances.

Lindholm put up an assist, two shots on goal and two blocked shots in Wednesday's 3-1 win over the Stars in Game 5. Lindholm won a puck battle and fed Johnny Gaudreau for an empty-net look. That shot went wide, but Trevor Lewis buried the second effort. Lindholm has three goals, one assist, 12 shots on net, nine hits and five blocked shots in five playoff outings, continuing to play a strong two-way game that's helped the Flames establish a 3-2 series lead.

Lindholm scored a goal in Monday's 4-1 win over the Stars in Game 4. Lindholm has tallied three times in four games, and two of those goals have come in wins.

Lindholm scored a goal on five shots, logged two hits and added two PIM in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Stars in Game 3. Lindholm has two of the Flames' three goals through three games in this series.

He's added nine shots, eight hits and a minus-1 rating in the playoffs.
