You can understand why Philadelphia Flyers fans are high on Carter Hart.

On Wednesday, the up-and-coming netminder was named the recipient of the Del Wilson Memorial Trophy, presented to the WHL's goaltender of the year.

It marks the third straight year Hart has laid claim to the trophy, while he's also the first netminder to win it more than twice.

Across 41 appearances with the WHL's Everett Silvertips this season, Hart notched a 31-6-3 record, alongside a .947 save rate and 1.60 GAA.

The Alberta native also suited for Team Canada at last year's World Juniors, when he led the Great White North to its first gold-medal finish in three tournaments.

The Flyers selected Hart with the 48th pick in the 2016 draft.
