Hobey Baker Legends of College Hockey Award

The Hobey Baker Legends of College Hockey Award is an annual award presented by the Hobey Baker Memorial Award Committee to honor "one of the all-time great contributors to the game of college hockey."[1]

In 1981, the Hobey Baker Memorial Award Committee began to award two annual awards. One – the Hobey Baker Award – is given to the individual selected as the outstanding NCAA men's ice hockey player of the current year. The other award – the "Legends of College Hockey Award" – was established simultaneously to honor a player or coach who has made outstanding historic contributions to the sport. The "Legends of College Hockey Award" has been presented to individuals who have made contributions as a player, coach or administrator.
