Putting aside my tendecies (tongue-in-cheek) as a HockeyEast fan, I really,
really believe it should go to Chris Drury. Chris leads the nation in scoring
(not that this is what the Hobey is about ... ) and exemplifies all the traits
that are looked for in a Hobey Candidate. Whether or not Morrison or White
exhibit that same off-ice character or not is beyond me, but I'd love to hear
some real "Hobey-specific" criteria when people espouse certain players for this
award.

Of Morrison and White, my vote has to go to White (even putting aside my
tendencies as a Knights fan).  White leads the nation in scoring, including
leading the nation in Game Winning Goals.  White is always the man you can
count on for Clarkson, from scoring both goals in a 2-1 victory over Vermont or
scoring with :11 left in OT against Princeton.  Morrison has had a great season
with a great team, but White has had a great season with a team that noone had
picked in the top 5 and noone picked to win the ECAC (see ECAC preseason
coaches poll - 11 for Vermont, 1 for Harvard (can UVM's coach really judge
talent?)).
