Geoffrin wins Hobey?

Re: Geoffrin wins Hobey?

This sucks
I was hoping Gustav would win, congrats to Geoffrin
 
Re: Geoffrin wins Hobey?

There is no consensus needed when both Chuck Schwartz and I have confirmed with the writer that two versions were written and one was accidentally posted by someone else at madison.com

I didn't catch that first read through; thanks. This makes sense.

As I said, I have no doubt there were two stories written. The mystery is, why was one posted? And why was it the one where he won and not the one where he lost? Hmmm?

Inquiring minds want to know.

**** happens, before the scott brown vs martha coakley special election, boston.com accidentally had full results for the election posted showing coakley winning 51% to 49%, it ended up being a test run of the system but it was available for anyone that wanted to see the results for a short while...I'm sure both were "posted," but neither was suppose to be posted somewhere that the public could get to...

sorry...by "posted" I meant to infer that both were posted on a restricted portion of madison.com not accessible to the public...honestly the screw up is probably a matter of a check box or properties field for the webpage itself...its really a simple mistake that is being blown out of proportion...although I do think Blake will and should win the Hobey...

I know someone on the committee (the dad of one of my kid's hockey teammates), I should let him know about this article. :D

Edit: Sent it to the committee member.

Response from the Hobey committee member "Very interesting, I'll share that with my fellow committee members."

If somebody leaked it he might have his *** in the wringer.;)
 
Re: Geoffrin wins Hobey?

Gee! What a surprise!

If we were at the Kohl Center right now, we'd all be {pointing at the Cap Times} "you effed up! you effed up!"

Congratulations Blake! WELL deserved.

Remember that the results were determined a long time ago - the Hat Trick is merely narrowing the list to the top 3 vote recipients, and the winner has already been determined (if not revealed) at that time.

A leak wouldn't surprise me in the least.

Either way, congrats to Bam Bam!
 
Re: Geoffrin wins Hobey?

I kinda of knew during the show... or at least I think I did.

Wasn't that him in the Josten's commercials?

Congrats to Blake! It's about time Wisconsin has a Hobey Baker winner.

That's the part that shocks me, that a Badger had never won before. Congrats to Geoffrion for continuing the legacy of one of the first families of hockey. I had no idea his great grandfather was Howie Morenz. Wow!

Also a shout out to our Bobby Butler. He had a great season, without him UNH would not have won the Hockey East regular season and advanced to the NCAA final 8. I'm sure that Geoffrion was the same, but Bobby improved every year he was at UNH and capped it off with a season UNH fans will remember for a long time.
