Joe Sakic garnered a slew of accolades over his 20-season NHL career, first for the Quebec Nordiques, who selected him in the first round of the 1987 NHL Draft, and later for the Colorado Avalanche after the Nordiques relocated to Denver. In Colorado, he captured two Stanley Cups, won the Hart Trophy as NHL MVP, and the Conn Smythe Trophy as MVP of the playoffs. As part of NHL's Centennial celebration in 2017, Sakic was voted one of the 100 Greatest Players in League history. The Burnaby, British Columbia native also won gold medals representing Canada at each of the Olympic Winter Games, World Cup of Hockey, IIHF World Championships and IIHF World Junior Championships. Sakic won a third Stanley Cup as General Manager of the Avalanche in 2022 and is currently the club’s President of Hockey Operations.
