I notice that Auston Matthews is a finalist for the Selke and the Lady Byng.

Only three players have won both in the same year:
  • Francis in '95
  • Datsyuk in '08
  • Kopitar in '16
Matthews could become the 4th, and the first American.

Note: O'Reilly & Barkov have won each once, but in different seasons.

Note2: Datsyuk & Kopitar have not only been the most gentlemanly player while at the same time being the best defensive forward (an honor Frank Nighbor would have won multiple times if the Selke existed back then)... but also: Datsyuk & Kopitar have won each award again, but in different seasons.
