Vancouver Canucks rookie forward Brock Boeser has been named the All-Star tournament's most valuable player.
Boeser recorded the game-winning goal for the Pacific Division in the semifinal round, and followed it up with a goal and an assist in a final victory over the Atlantic Division.
The 20-year-old was given a 2018 Honda Clarity Plug-In Hybrid, and a successful weekend triggers a few bonuses in his contract.
How was your weekend? Brock Boeser takes home almost $550,000 - and a car for #NHLAllStar MVP.
