Montreal Canadiens prospect Cole Caufield was named to the final three nominees for the Hobey Baker Award yesterday.

The Habs first round pick in the 2019 NHL Draft had a tremendous college career over two seasons with the Wisconsin Badgers. He was great as a freshman, but he was flat out unstoppable as a sophomore.

In his first year of NCAA competition, Caufield led the tough Big Ten Conference in scoring with 19 goals and 16 points in 36 games.
