The Fred J. Hume Award was first presented after the Canucks' inaugural NHL season in
1970–71 and was named after former
Mayor of Vancouver Fred J. Hume, who was also owner of the
Vancouver Canucks, while they were in the
Western Hockey League (WHL), and an active campaigner to bring the NHL to Vancouver. Prior to being decided by a fan vote, the award was decided on by the Vancouver Canucks Booster Club before the organization dissolved in the 2000s. The most times a Canucks player has won the award is three times, which was accomplished by
Jannik Hansen (
2011,
2013, and
2016). ==Winners==
