Las Vegas - Roberto Luongo and Cory Schneider of the Vancouver Canucks captured the William M. Jennings Trophy, presented "to the goalkeeper(s) having played a minimum of 25 games for the team with the fewest goals scored against it."

Luongo captured his first Jennings Trophy as the Canucks allowed the fewest goals in the NHL (185) for the first time in franchise history. The 32-year-old Montreal native went 38-15-7 in 60 appearances, posting the best goals-against average in his 11-year NHL career (2.11) and his top save percentage since joining the Canucks in 2006-07 (.928). He tied for the League lead in victories, ranked second in goals-against average and fourth in save percentage. Among his season highlights was a streak of 21 decisions without a loss, going 16-0-5 from Dec. 8 through Feb. 12.

Schneider excelled in relief of Luongo in his first full NHL season after a three-year apprenticeship with Manitoba of the American Hockey League. The Canucks' first pick (24th overall) in the 2004 Entry Draft posted a 16-4-2 record in 25 appearances, highlighted by a franchise record-tying 10-game undefeated streak (8-0-2) in his first 10 decisions of the season. He ranked third among NHL goaltenders in save percentage (.929) and was fourth in goals-against average (2.23).
