Stuff for Hobey Underway

[Jeff Hopkins '82]

I just voted for about a dozen players.

Current Tallies:

McKee        29
Moulson     21
Hynes        19
Pokoluk      17

You need 25 to advance.

Vote early, vote often.

For some reason I just felt compelled to vote for Mike Iggulden

Speaking of the Hobey... Tonight was the first-ever head-to-head matchup between Dave LeNeveu (Utah) and 2002 (EDIT: 2001) Hobey winner and Michigan State alum Ryan Miller (Rochester). LeNeveu made 40 saves on 43 shots in a losing effort, while Miller stopped 22 of 23.

Also, Thomas Vanek scored one of Rochester's goals.

Milller won in '01. Jordan Leopold won it in '02.

Some team they have in Utah... they give up 30 shots a game and have exactly zero players who've played more than one game with a positive +/-... they're only 8 points behind the second worst team in the AHL.

Hey, Bill Mikkelson was -81 for the Caps in 1975, and he may have been the best player on the team... :-P

Or you could just have Diebold tally the votes....

...because, after all, questioning how Fairview Park, Ohio had 138% voter turnout is just unpatriotic partisanship, right?

I was at the game tonight and thought Lenny played as well as anyone could have asked. His team isn't as bad as their record would suggest ... just their defense. Keep in mind that Rochester is "so hot right now" and Utah just isn't ... well, anything close.  

Of his three GA, the only one he should/could have had was the Vanek goal. He battled on the end boards (and of course won b/c Utah's defense sucks) .... wraped around from directly behind the net and beat Dave five-hole. He was as usual, in perfect position, he just didn't get his stick down in time. You could tell he was upset with this one b/c he paused after and looked to replay it as if to say, "I should have had that." His other two GAA were highlight reel goals: the first was a tic-tac-toe passing play that was burried through the back of the net and Lenny came arcoss the net so fast/hard he took the net off the moorings; the second one was a perfect 2-1 breakaway that ended up roofed over his sliding right pad. All-in-all it was a good game and I'm glad I got a chance to see him play. Not sure if I'll be there again on Sunday but I'll let y'all know what happens if i do go.  

BTW ... Miller was for the most part solid but his one GA was a bit soft. Vanek OTOH was at the very least as impressive as he was when we saw him in Buffalo and I think it's safe to say last nights competition is a wee bit stiffer. He still looks like a potential NHL superstar (assuming we ever have another NHL) . ::help:: :`(

I'm guessing we've got four more hours in the Nominating Phase...

Sasha Pokulok needs 3 more votes to qualify for the next round and Knoepfli needs 5 more!  Come on guys!  Help some brothers out!  RPI players have more votes than McKee, our top vote getter!  :-(

[atb9]

Great response!  Sasha and Knoepfli are in!  Cam Abbott, Topher Scott, and Jeremy Downs are next!  :-D

I'm especially happy that McKee has now passed the RIP scrubs.  :-( :-(  :-D

Sawada needs 8 more...how can you not vote for a guy that hits like that?  ;-)

I'm assuming there are two more hours of nominating left...
