Keep voting For McKee

[Bio '04]

Well it looks like neither McKee nor McKenna get goalie of the week.  Traylen gets that honor:

But McKee and Moulson make it to the honor roll.

Mike Eruzione: At the beginning of the year, I predicted Jimmy Howards from Maine. But after reading the Sports Illustrated article about the goalie for Bowling Green (Jordan Sigalet), I'd it to him on principle alone.

Point proven, sympathy votes!

Say McKee actually made the final round of ten Hobey nominees. Some hotshot netminder out of the Chilliwack Chiefs is going to see the publicity, recall that Davenport bailed, and sign on with Colgate instead.

No good deed goes unpunished.

No good deed goes unpunished. [/q] Actually, Chilliwack's goalie has committed to Northern Michigan. :-D

Or he'll remember that Lenny was in the same spot too and then picture himself being an automatic Hobey finalist with Cornell by his Junior year.

This was posted on USCHO:

"McKee's family business has all their employees voting [for David to win the hobey](100's of playground-equipment franchise locations...)."

Very interesting.  His parents are diehard and I like it!  B-]

[Greg Berge]

They better vote harder; David is starting to slide a little, and may be down to fifth by the end of today.

He is already now in fifth.

Northeastern is mobilizing their fanbase better than we are right now.  That's sad.

my vote just tied him for 4th :-)

[q] Northeastern is mobilizing their fanbase better than we are right now. That's sad.[/q]Oh, I don't think so.  I'm a plenty interested and motivated COrnell hockey fan, but I can't be bothered to vote in "Stuff for Hobey" because I know how silly and basically meaningless it is.  (Not to mention the fact that I don't think McKee is the best player in college hockey this year...)

Ditto.

I sent an e-mail this morning to a bunch of friends who I thought might be interested in voting but who probably aren't regular Forum readers, and asked them to pass it along to their such friends as well... if they don't care, or don't think McKee's the best, that's their prerogative (and yours, obviously), but it's still fun to participate in the voting and try to affect the outcome.

Of course online Vote for Hobey is basically meaningless.  In my mind, the whole point of the endeavor is to give a fanbase bragging rights over other fanbases, in that we're able to mobilize our supposedly large fanbase better than others.  In other words, we need to mobilize above and beyond so I can better compete in USCHO flamefests. :-D
