The Boston Bruins have put forward Danton Heinen as their nominee for the 2024 Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy, recognizing his resilience, sportsmanship, and dedication to the sport.

Praising Heinen's journey from a training camp invite to a key player in the team's lineup, Joe Haggerty, Chair of the Professional Hockey Writers Association Boston Chapter, highlighted Heinen's impact on and off the ice.

«There are few better examples of resilience than Danton Heinen earning his way into a top-six role with the Boston Bruins this season after being a training camp invite that had to win his spot in the fall," said Joe Haggerty, Professional Hockey Writers Association Boston Chapter Chair. "Heinen went from not being in Boston's plans at all in the offseason to becoming an integral, versatile part of this season's team in his second go-round with the B's organization. Aside from being a solid pro and a valued teammate, that dedication and resilience also makes him an excellent Bruins nominee for this season's Masterton Trophy.»
