How crazy is it that Giordano won the Muhammad Ali Sports Humanitarian Award which spans the entire world of sports, yet has never won a Clancy?

Muhammad Ali Sports Humanitarian Award

The Muhammad Ali Sports Humanitarian Award is given to an athlete whose continuous, demonstrated leadership has created a measured positive impact on their community through sports. The candidate must embrace the core principals that Muhammad Ali embodied so well, including confidence, conviction, dedication, giving and respect.

Formally called the Sports Humanitarian of the Year Award, it was renamed in 2017 to honor the legacy of Muhammad Ali's impact on society.

The King Clancy Memorial Trophy is an annual award given "to the player who best exemplifies leadership qualities on and off the ice and has made a noteworthy humanitarian contribution in his community."
