Re: Jack Connolly wins the Hobey
This is obviously a case of Colgate not making it into the tournament-bias. Austin Smith: leading goal scorer; lead nation in SHGs; second in total points; among the leaders in assists. What's not to like? It is obvious that an eastern college player cannot win this award, given the politics involved.
The voting should have gone like this: 1. Austin Smith, 2. Abbott, 3. Connolly. Jack's a great player and deserving of recognition, just not the Hobey Baker Award this season.
