Cam Ward, at 22 years and 110 days, is the third-youngest player to win the Conn Smythe Trophy. Patrick Roy earned that honor in 1986 at 20 years, 231 days, and Bobby Orr won that award in 1970 at 22 years, 51 days.
Ward is the first rookie goaltender to win Game 7 of the Stanley Cup finals since Ken Dryden in 1971.
