Brian Morris writes : The question again: Is there something unique to the player who wins the Hobey that somehow negates his pro potential--and I'm not talking about all the intangible elements that are included in the consideration of the award. What traits might be common to Hobey winners, but fatal to NHL success: size, strength, shotmaking, etc. ===================================================================== I think it's basic: the two games (pro and college) are totally different. What makes one a good college player doesn't make one a good pro and vice-versa. The Hobey awards the best college player. Period. - Steve
