Hobey Watch Jan 16

Here is this weeks Hockeynuts Hobey Watch for January 16, 2007.

There are some changes in the top three but the top spot again remains the same. With some shuffling around in the top five lets get right to it.

Nathan Davis F Miami (JR): Davis was quiet this weekend with only one goal in the split against Western Michigan. Davis still has the stats even though he has been quiet the last five games (2 g, 1 a, 3 p) but he is still an impact player and is vital to Miami's late season run.

Season Stats: 16 g, 22 a, 38 p

T.J. Hensick F Michigan (SR): A four point weekend helped Hensick this weekend as he is now tied for second in the country and first in the CCHA in scoring. Two assists against Bowling Green and two assists the next game against Western Michigan helped Hensick spring up back into the Hobey Hat Trick.

Season Stats: 7 g, 31 a, 38 p

David Brown G Notre Dame (SR): With a sweep of Lake Superior on the road this past weekend, Brown and the Irish are now alone at the top of the CCHA standings. With a 51 save weekend, Brown held the Lakers to four goals. Right now one can argue that Brown has been the best goalie in the country in the Nations surprise team this year.

Season Stats: 18-3-1, 1.76 gaa, .927 save pct, 3 shutouts.

The rest of the top five:

Trevor Smith F New Hampshire (SO): A quiet game against Dartmouth, Smith falls down a few spots in the Hobey watch. Smith is still leading Hockey East in scoring and right now one can argue that Smith should be the Hockey East Player of the Year. This weekend the Wildcats have a home and home against UMASS-Amherst.

Season Stats: 14 g, 16 a, 30 p

Kevin Regan G New Hampshire (JR): In a 43 save performance against Dartmouth, Regan helped his cause by going from darkhorse to the top five in the Hobey Watch.

Season Stats: 15-3-1, 2.14 gaa, .929 save pct, 1 shutout

This weeks darkhorse:

Cory Schneider G Boston College (JR): Schneider has allowed three goals in his last three games. People can argue that John Curry of BU and Joe Fallon of Vermont should be up there, but they both have been darkhorses and Schneider has not so he gets the darkhorse spot this week. This weekend Schneider and the Eagles travel to Vermont to face the Catamounts.

Season Stats: 12-6-1, 2.15 gaa, .924 save pct, 3 shutouts.
