Predators defenseman Mark Borowiecki has been named as Nashville’s nominee for the Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy for his dedicated work on the ice.

The trophy is awarded annually to the National Hockey League player who best exemplifies the qualities of perseverance, sportsmanship and dedication to hockey.

Borowiecki appeared in just 22 contests during his first season with Nashville which was cut short due to injury. This season, he’s bounced back to become a an important force for the Predators. During the 2021-22 season, Borowiecki played 54 games for the Predators offering devastating defense on the blue line. He fought through injury to earn himself a contract extension with Nashville where he lives with his wife and young son.

Borowiecki has been a champion of mental health awareness as well as making the game of hockey inclusive to everyone.

This is Borowiecki’s second career nomination for the Masterton Trophy; the first came in 2018 as a member of the Ottawa Senators. Former Predators forward Steve Sullivan won the award in 2009
