Hobey Baker Finalists Announced

The ten finalists for the Hobey Baker award were announced March 16, and it's possible there will be a two-time winner for the first time.

The finalists are:

  • Ryan Potulny (Minnesota)
  • Matt Carle (Denver)
  • Chris Collins (Boston)
  • Brian Elliot (Wisconsin)
  • Andy Greene (Miami of Ohio)
  • Greg Moore (Maine)
  • Scott Parse (Nebraska-Omaha)
  • Brett Sterling (Colorado)
  • T.J. Trevelyan (St. Lawrence)
  • Marty Sertich (Colorado) 2005 winner

Sertich could make history this year by becoming the first player to receive the award twice in its 25 years.

The Hobey Baker award is given out annually to the top National Collegiate Athletic Association men's ice hockey player. The finalists are selected by vote from the 59 NCAA division 1 head coaches and by online balloting, which ended in January.

On March 29, the three finalists will be announced and the winner will be revealed on April 7.
