Finishing first in the Patrick Division at the close of the 1983-84 NHL season, the New York Islanders – led by team-assist leader Bryan Trottier and leading goal-scorer Mike Bossy, would claim their third consecutive Prince of Wales Trophy. Trottier would secure 111 points in 1983-84, adding an additional 14 during the playoffs. For their status as Wales Conference playoff champions, members of the Islanders received miniature Prince of Wales trophies to commemorate their fine campaign, with “Bryan Trottier” engraved along with that of the trophy on a metal plaque applied to one side of the 2-inch high wooden base, while engraving on a second plaque over the reverse reads "NHL Champions – New York Islanders – 1983-84". Four silver-plated hockey sticks rise up from the base to support a cup with removable lid (with slightly bent finial), giving the award a total height of 13”. Originating from Trottier’s personal collection, an LOA from the family will accompany.
As mentioned, the top finial is bent downward slightly, with a few areas over the bottom metal sections showing wear with surface loss. There is also some light surface wear to the trophy’s inner rim and lid, with additional wear to the mounted Prince of Wales/name plaque and a blemish to the team name/date plaque. We should also note surface loss over the upper Prince of Wales crest and floral band, with a few small nicks and marks to the wooden base.
