This annual accolade is bestowed upon the goaltender who is deemed the best in their position, as determined by the votes of the general managers of all NHL clubs.
Ullmark, a first-time recipient, earned this esteemed recognition following his outstanding season with the Bruins.
In 48 starts, he displayed exceptional performance by only registering 6 losses, allowing a mere 91 goals against, maintaining an impressive 1.89 GAA (Goals Against Average), and achieving a remarkable .938 SV% (Save Percentage).
Among all NHL goaltenders, Ullmark ranked first in every statistical category, except for shutouts.
His back-to-back strong seasons have been noteworthy, but this particular season stands out as his most exceptional and successful, not only for him but also for the Bruins organization.
