gold star for USAHOF

31. Sean Couturier

31. Sean Couturier

As of this writing, Sean Couturier is in his twelfth season in the National Hockey League all of which have been with the Philadelphia Flyers.  Couturier was the eighth overall Draft Pick in 2011 and it did not take long for the Centre to prove his worth to the team.  In his third season, Couturier finished ninth in Frank J. Selke voting and would finish eighth in voting in his fifth season.  Couturier’s game reached a new high in 2017/18 when his offensive game exploded to a 31 Goal 76 Point season, which essentially doubled anything he had done before.  He was the runner-up for the Frank J. Selke Award that season, and he equaled his Points total the following year.  In 2019/20, Couturier won his first individual accolade, the Selke, though he has yet to be in the running since.

Couturier missed all of 2022/23 due to back issues, but If he returns to rpevious form his ranking should rise.
