Each month, December through February, student-athletes from throughout the state are selected as recipients of the award. Public A, Public B, Public C, and Non-Public All-Tournament Teams will be selected in March and an overall Boys and Girls High School Player of the Year will be chosen after the conclusion of the season.
Winners are based on nominations received from members of the media who cover the state's scholastic hockey. Award winners and their guests receive tickets to a Devils game and a certificate presented by a Devils player. This marks the 27th season that the Devils are honoring high school student-athletes.
