Collinwood's Hobey Baker trophy
« on: May 31, 2002, 04:59:27 PM »
Hello all!

Well, I was watching my DS tape of yesterday's episodes with my husband (he is not an original DS fan - but has been watching all of the shows with me this go around).  He looked up and said, "what's with the Hobey Baker trophy?"  (my husband is a big-time hockey fan and, for those who don't know about it - as I didn't when we first met - the Hobey Baker trophy is a college level hockey trophy). I looked to see what he was looking at and, sure enough, the statue on the table in the hallway (where the phone is) looks like a guy playing hockey :D

So, for the rest of the night my husband gave encouragement to the DS characters by saying, "make Hobey proud!"

Sigh....oh well, at least he's watching with me, right?  ;D

Maybe Roger was a big hockey fan in his youth. Maine is only a hop, skip and a jump away from Canada, after all! ;)

For those who are interested,

The Hobey Baker trophy is given to the college hockey player of the year.
