Hobey Baker Award Voting Opens

January 15, 2018 at 3:04 pm CDT | by Gavin Lee Leave a Comment

With the collegiate hockey season entering the home stretch, voting for this year’s Hobey Baker Memorial Award has opened with 67 players nominated for the award. The trophy is given to the top NCAA player in the country, and has an impressive line of winners over the past few years. In 2013-14, Johnny Gaudreau took home the award as a junior for Boston College, followed by Jack Eichel in his only year for Boston University in 2015-16. The last two trophies have gone out to big offseason free agents in Jimmy Vesey and Will Butcher, who are now playing for the New York Rangers and New Jersey Devils respectively.

2017 Hobey Baker Memorial AwardThe award also has several top NHL alumni in its small fraternity, including Neal Broten, Tom Kurvers, Paul Kariya, Chris Drury, Ryan Miller and Brendan Morrison. With that group behind them, this year’s winner is certainly not someone to take lightly.
