Will Butcher has had his eye on the Hobey Baker award since his senior season with the DU Pioneers started. This week, he saw his goal take its first step toward fulfillment as he became one of 66 young hockey players nominated for the coveted award. About the honor, he said, “It’s a great accomplishment for myself. It’s a goal I set out for myself personally at the beginning of the year.” This first round of voting, which began on January 30th, includes the annual fan ballot which will comprise 1% of the total ballot in each phase.
