The Ed Chynoweth Trophy is awarded to the leading scorer at the Memorial Cup tournament. It was first awarded in 1996.[1] In the case of a tie in points, the award is given to the player with the fewest games played.[2] Should players tied in points have played the same number of games, the award goes to the player with the most goals scored.[citation needed]
Amongst the three leagues, a player from the Quebec Maritimes Junior Hockey League (QMJHL) has won the award eleven times, while players representing the Ontario Hockey League (OHL) have won the award nine times and the Western Hockey League (WHL) eight times. Players from the OHL's London Knights have won the award three times, the most of any team. Five other teams have twice had one of their players win the award: the QMJHL's Hull/Gatineau Olympiques and Halifax Mooseheads, the OHL's Kitchener Rangers, and the WHL's Vancouver Giants and Kelowna Rockets.[3] Mitch Marner has the highest winning total for the award with 14 points, though he falls short of the tournament record of 16 points set by Jeff Larmer of the Kitchener Rangers in 1982 and Guy Rouleau of the Olympiques in 1986.[3][4] Easton Cowan is the first player to win the award more than once, winning consecutively in 2024 and 2025.[5]
The trophy is named after Ed Chynoweth, who was the president of the WHL from 1972 to 1996. He helped create the Canadian Hockey League (CHL) and served as its president from 1975 until 1996.[6] Chynoweth was instrumental in the creation of the CHL, and as its president, he helped create Canadian junior hockey's scholarship program and organized the Memorial Cup into a tournament format.[7] Chynoweth stepped down as WHL and CHL president in 1996 when he was awarded a WHL expansion franchise, the Edmonton Ice, a franchise he operated until his death in 2008.[8] He was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame shortly after his death.[6]
