Best Hugo short story anthology?

What's the best anthology of Hugo Award-winning short stories? I'm less interested in Hugo-winning novelletes and novellas, and the collections I'm seeing from a short Amazon search seem to include these rather than just short stories. ('There is no such thing - you're stuck with a mixture of all three' is a totally fine answer.)
What restless_nomad said. A Hugos-only collection would miss a lot of very good short stories. Dozois's books are *big* but worth it.

Response by poster: Thanks! Yes, I was actually just looking for a book of awesome sci-fi short stories and figured the Hugo would be a good filter.

Also, the SF Encyclopedia's list of Hugo-related anthologies is probably a useful place to start. It does not appear from that that shorts-only anthologies were ever a thing (and the Dozois contains some novelettes and maybe novellas, although most of the longer stuff is in the Best of the Best vol. 2.)
