Through fan voting, Colton Point has moved on to the top 10 voting for the Hockey Baker Memorial Award for U.S. College Hockey’s Most Valuable Player Award. 

The ten finalists were selected by voting from all 60 Division I college hockey head coaches and by online fan balloting. 

Next, the 27-member Selection Committee and an additional round of fan balloting through the Hobey website at www.hobeybaker.com from March 14-25 will determine this year’s Hobey Baker winner. Criteria for the award include: displaying outstanding skills in all phases of the game, strength of character on and off the ice, sportsmanship and scholastic achievements.

Winning the coveted award would be another feather in the cap for the former North Bay Midget AAA Trappers goaltender.  

The 2016 Dallas Stars draft pick was named a finalist for the ECAC Hockey Ken Dryden Goaltender of the Year Award as well as the league's Player of the Year Award which was announced in early March.  

Of course Point also won a gold medal with Team Canada at the World Juniors over the Christmas Holidays.
