While this is true, it's worth noting the age at which most of the others won the award. Johnny started and ended his (likely) Hobey-winning season as a 20-year-old junior.

The last 20-year-old was Ryan Miller as a sophomore.
Before that was Paul Kariya as a teenage wunderkind.

Not bad company...
