Previous NHL Jack Adams Award Winners

Winning the Jack Adams Award is one of the biggest honours for any coach in the National Hockey League, and only a handful of men have ever managed to win it more than once.

To this date, Pat Burns is the only man to have claimed this honour on three occasions, having won it with the Montreal Canadiens in 1988/89, Toronto Maple Lefs in 1992/93 and the Boston Bruins in 1997/98.

And only one man in history has managed to win the Jack Adams Award in consecutive seasons, and that was Jacques Demers of the Detroit Pistons back in 1986/87 and 1987/88.
