Good job. I couldn't figure out what happened when I first looked at the post. Finally I realized I didn't do it and looked at the author.**]

It's also interesting that there was only 1 other goalie mentioned for GOTW.

Can anybody explain to me the rationale for giving Matt ROTW instead of GOTW, which they gave to Brey, who had a less impressive performance than Matt against weaker competition? Were there really no other rookies among the twelve teams who had a weekend of notable achievement?

It's the spread the wealth thing they do.  Like when a goalie wins POTW... and doesn't win GOTW.

I dunno, but here's my guess. Matt got GOTW the previous week, when he gave up 0 goals. This past weekend he gave up 1. So he set the bar too high for himself.

OTOH, Brey made 90 saves over the weekend and SLU won both games (Galajda made 62 saves), including a shutout against Yale (something we haven't done this season -- yet!). In a world where every kid gets a trophy, the ECAC realized that this may be the only chance to give SLU's goalie an award. These were the only two league games SLU has won so far this season. And it wouldn't matter if he made 200 saves in an upcoming weekend if the team lost, because it's even harder to justify giving the award to a losing goalie.

That latter argument makes a lot more sense to me. I didn't realize those numbers came from a 90-save weekend.
