TORONTO -- As if a Stanley Cup title was not enough, Tampa Bay Lightning forward Martin St. Louis captured the 2003-04 Hart Memorial Trophy as the National Hockey League's most valuable player.

The 5-foot-9 St. Louis led the NHL in scoring this past season with 94 points, including 38 goals, and played in all 82 games for the Lightning, who won the Cup on Monday night with a Game 7 victory over Calgary.

St. Louis, whose plus-35 rating was tied for the best in hockey, became the first player since Wayne Gretzky in 1987 to lead the league in scoring, win the Stanley Cup and take home the Hart in the same season.

The other two finalists were Calgary captain Jarome Iginla and New Jersey goaltender Martin Brodeur.

Iginla, who knows St. Louis very well after the seven-game final set, had an outstanding season for Calgary, which rose from the depths of division cellar dweller and went on its magical run this spring. Iginla, the first black captain in NHL history, tied for tops in the league in goals with 41.

The Hart Trophy is not new territory at all for Brodeur, who once again finished as one of the best goaltenders in the NHL. He led the Devils to another 100-point campaign and compiled a 38-26-11 record with a 2.03 goals- against average in 75 games this season. He also had a save percentage of .917 and led the NHL with 11 shutouts.

Although he did not win the Hart, Brodeur was awarded the Vezina trophy as the league's best goaltender, the second straight year he has done so in his brilliant career.

The Hart was not the only piece of hardware that St. Louis took home on Thursday night - he was also given the Lester B. Pearson Award, awarded by the NHL Players' Association to the league's most outstanding player.
