Interestingly enough, junior forward Dan Stiver received the Howard Colby
Award as the most sportsmanlike wolverine. You may recall that Stiver
took some heat for delivering a post-game cheap shot to a member of BGSU
after BGSU swepted Michigan this season. Of course, I can't honestly
think of anyone more sportsmanlike than Stiver. Maybe our backup goalie,
Chris Gordon. He wasn't on the ice enough to take a shot at anyone.
Other Michigan awards:
Hal Downes Trophy (MVP): Sr F Denny Felsner (42-52--94)
Vic Heyliger Trophy (outstanding defenseman): Jr David Harlock
Alton D. Simms Trophy (most improved): Sr D Doug Evans
Carl Issacson Award (top student athlete): Sr F Mike Helber
Dekers Club Award (most colorful rookie): F Mike Knuble
Doc Losh Trophy (scoring leader): Felsner, of course.
These were reported by the Michigan Daily. I was too upset from their
showing against Wisconsin to attend the awards banquet. I should have
gone, if nothing more than to honor the seniors for helping bring this
program from obscurity to a national power (once again). The seniors:
F Denny Felsner (has joined the St Louis Blues)
F Ted Kramer (drafted by the LA Kings, the Charles Manson of LA-LA-land?)
D Doug Evans (drafted by the Winnipeg Jets, Evans did more his senior
year than the first three combined -- a more deserving most improved
player award has never been given)
F Mike Helber (drafted by the Winnipeg Jets, my pick to stick around as
a graduate assistant -- his brother, Tim, was a walk-on and later served
as the grad assistant in 1990-91 -- another brother, Matt, will be
attempting to walk-on to the 1992-93 wolverines -- I hope he makes it
if for nothing more than to see Grandma Helber proudly display her
maize and blue throughout Yost Arena for four more years)
