Alex Wennberg is the San Jose Sharks’ King Clancy Memorial Trophy nominee.



The award goes to one of the 32 nominees – selected by each NHL team – for leadership qualities on and off the ice, in addition to a significant humanitarian contribution to their community. The winner, announced after the conclusion of the NHL season, receives a $25,000 donation to a charity of their choice.

Last years’ Sharks nominee was Mario Ferraro. For Wennberg, in his second year with the San Jose Sharks, his humanitarian work has spanned multiple organizations and causes.

Wennberg, along with his wife Felicia, donated to Feeding America and Second Harvest Food Bank amid SNAP benefits stopping during the previous government shutdown.

Wennberg also attended the San Jose Sharks annual Pride Scrimmage in February, and Wennberg has supported Special Olympics, attending a floor hockey game and hosting players from that game in a suite at SAP Center.
