I'm not fully certain about the award given to Connor Glenn, but it was the best translation of "spécialiste de longue remise" that I could come up with.

Evidently someone named to the MVP spot can not occupy a spot on the all-star team at the same time. This appears to apply to Vinette and Glenn above, as well as Nickolas Decoste and Nicolas Rico. If Rico was not the all-star QB otherwise, I'd love to see who got the nod. His highlights are spectacular.

Finally, the coaching staff as a whole was honoured as well. Based on the team's success over the past couple of seasons, that hardly comes as a shock.
