This
is an annual award presented to the player having played a
minimum of 60 games, who leads the league in plus/minus statistics
at the end of the regular season. Bud Light contributes $5,000 to
the winners charity of choice.
The
award was first presented to the NHL by Anheuser-Busch Inc to recognize
the leagues plus/minus leader. The plus/minus statistic is
calculated by awarding the player a plus when he is
on the ice for a full strength or shorthanded goal scored by his
team, and he is given a minus when he is on the ice
for a full strength or shorthanded goal scored by the opposing team.
