Vote Barron for Hobey

I dont think anyone thought Matt was gonna have a solid a career as he did.

I love Matt but his "solid career" was getting paired up with John Tavares.  ::cheer::

Playing with Tavares was huge, but it's not like Matt brought no skills to the table. I remember looking into this a few years ago and he put up as many, if not more, points and goals in his best couple years as any other linemate of Tavares. It's not like every single winger would put up 30 goals and 60 points alongside Tavares. Plenty had worse years than that.

And it makes sense, given that Matt's best talent was a nose for the net when put into good scoring positions.

Does this mean Barron is leading the race?

[dag14]

He may have been leading when you clicked on that link but sometimes the early lead is the kiss of death in fan voting.  Fans from other schools may now jump in to move their guy up.  Let's just hope there are many Barron fans who have not yet voted.

yup, Mr. Kawaguchi has overtaken Barron.  Barron was 2.1 percent ahead when i made that post above but just in a matter of few hours, the UND was able to mobilize their entire community.  Their surge has been incredible.

Jack Dugan of Providence is sitting under 4% in fan voting.

Small school.  Terrific player.

Do any of you actually think he was the best player in the country last season?

Seriously?

Barron was a dominant force in every game I watched this season. Others voting for him likely feel the same way. And few if any of us have studied Jack Dugan's and Jordan Kawaguchi's tape such that we could say with any degree of confidence that someone out there was better than Barron. Given all your late nights in the film room watching tape of all ten Hobey finalists, please enlighten us on who was clearly better than Barron.

You could also argue that we played against very few players in games that were of the elite level and for the most part our top D line took them all out of their game..

Much like the Clarkson Goalie had great numbers but not against us.

If a guy scored 2 goals a game all season and we shut him down he still had a great season.

To me Barron was the best player on the ice in most of the games,  but he didnt dominate with pts which is what many people look at.
