Boston College’s Ryan Leonard was selected as one of three Hobey Baker finalists, the organization announced on Thursday. The other finalists for the award, which goes to the top men’s college hockey player in the country, are Denver defenseman Zeev Buium and Michigan State forward Isaac Howard.

Two days after wrapping up his career with the Boston College Eagles, Ryan Leonard will hit the ice for the Washington Capitals against the Bruins at TD Garden.

Leonard won a battle on the wall and then two races to loose pucks to keep the play alive before feeding Aliaksei Protas at the point, which began a tic-tac-toe passing sequence that led to Dylan Strome’s goal with 9:23 left in the game.
