Jeez...it must be getting bad when I begin to reply to myself. :-)
 
One more for the stat buffs.  Here are the CCHA goaltending leaders
prior to Lacher starting his streak. [All teams had played 26 games
other than Bowling Green and Miami with 25.]  Lacher's streak
certainly changed the figures below...but obviously the coaches
didn't feel his performance over the entire season warranted an
All-CCHA selection.

P.S. BTW, how does one finish tied for fourth in the all-conference
voting and win goaltender of the year at the conference awards
banquet?
