stop spamming your vote nonsense and let the 10 most deserving players get their shot at the hobey baker.

how would you feel if you had a great season in the ncaa, worthy of a baker nomination, but you missed out because a bunch of 15 year olds from canada that haven't watched a single shift of ncaa hockey voted in some other guy instead?

i'm not saying hutton doesn't deserve a nomination, but let nature take its course.

The selection process for the award is in three parts. First, the head coaches of NCAA Division I schools nominate the top three players in their league and the top three players in the nation. College hockey fans can also vote online at this time—and fan voting can be an important factor in the balloting outcome. Price Waterhouse Coopers tabulates the votes and the top 10 candidates are announced.

Voting then commences for the "Hobey Hat Trick," which is a narrowing of the field from ten players to three, from which the winner is selected. The primary voting in this part of the process is by the Hobey Baker Memorial Award Selection Committee, a geographically balanced group of 27 individuals representing print and electronic sports media, college hockey coaches and officials, and NHL scouts. Fans may also vote online for their favorite candidate during this phase of the process.

After the three finalists for the award are announced ("Hobey Hat Trick"), the countdown begins toward the announcement of the award winner in a nationally televised ceremony.

Voting by fans is part of nature taking it's course...

yes, voting by fans of ncaa teams, not fans of nhl teams voting en masse for players they've never seen play.

Whats the deal with maine now, can he play in the AHL after next year since his first draft eligible year he was passed on? or do we have to wait until he finishes his 4th yr of uni to come pro any one know?

From my understanding, it's all up to Hutton.

--If he wants to finish his 4 years, he can, and he plays in Maine the whole time.

--If he wants to play in the AHL/NHL, he's done at school.
