Johnny Gaudreau’s college career is over and his professional career with the Calgary Flames is just starting off, but the Boston College star may not be done collecting hardware for his collegiate feats just yet.
The diminutive winger, listed at 5-foot-8 and 155 pounds on his ESPN player page, won the 2014 Hobey Baker Award after putting up 80 points with 36 goals and 44 assists in 40 games as a junior at BC.
He played in one game for Calgary after signing following the Eagles’ season, playing 15:11 and scoring a goal (of course) on his only shot.
And now Johnny is up for an ESPY.
Miss Johnny? So do we but he was just nominated for the 2014 @ESPYS for Best College Athlete! http://t.co/sg6fhLYSd9 pic.twitter.com/MuJqE5qgsZ

Gaudreau is up against Creighton’s Doug McDermott (basketball), Penn State’s David Taylor (wrestling), Albany’s Lyle Thompson (lacrosse) and Florida State’s Jameis Winston (football).
Voting is open (starting from the bottom) and will continue until host Drake says the awards show is here on July 16 at 9 p.m. ET.
