Mark Stuart has been announced the winner of the Dan Snyder Memorial Award, which goes to the Jets player who embodies perseverance, dedication and hard work without reward or recognition, so that his team and teammates may succeed. The award was carried over from the Atlanta Thrashers and named after former NHLer Dan Snyder, who died in a car crash in 2003. Stuart was given the honor prior to Saturday's game versus Tampa Bay. The Winnipeg blueliner finished the 2011-12 campaign tied for eighth in the league with 182 blocked shots. Stuart also had 14 points and 98 penalty minutes in 80 games.
