The junior left wing, with possibly six more games to play this season, is now fifth on the all-time Crimson register with 154 points. His 56 points this season place him 10th on the single-season scoring list, and his 15 power-play goals is the team's second-highest total of the decade.

Statistically, MacDonald has been even more valuable to the Crimson this season than Fusco was last year (SEE BOX).

Fusco won the Hobey Baker award last season as the nation's best collegiate hockey player.

Granted, Fusco's senior season was not, statistically, his strongest--and the selection committee took into account the excellence of his four-year career when making its decision.

But, if you look at statistical contribution alone, and if Fusco could win the award with the numbers he posted last season, MacDonald--who has already been named one of the 10 finalists--should win the Hobey hands-down this campaign. MacDonaldFusco
