John Haeussler writes, "The All-GLI team, as randomly selected by a group of white mice in a laboratory experiment: ... G Jamie Ram, Michigan Tech (This brought a tremendous roar of laughter from our section. Can you say OVERRATED? These must have been the same lab mice that selected the All-America team last season. For the record, Ram goes 1-1 with nine goals against. Early in the third, my friend and I began predicting the All-GLI team. We figured Shields would get the nod if he held the shutout in the title game, even though Gordon played in the first round. Once MSU scored, the odds on choice was Buzak, who beat MTU in OT, 3-2, and held Michigan to four goals -- their second lowest output of the season -- while being pretty well peppered. Is there no justice? I've penciled Ram in for First Team West All-America again this season. He's as much of a lock as Charlie Ward was for the Heisman. :-) " In defense of Ram's selection, who else could they chose? Shields looked good but did not play two games and did not look as good as Ram did in the first game (MSU-MTU). Buzak was tremendous but Michigan seemed to be able to score at will against him in the UM-MSU game. Some wouild also suggest that in the MSU-MTU game, Buzak wasn't tested: MTU doesn't play much of an offensive game. 80% of the play was in the MTU zone. That leaves Notre Dame's Salzmann and Louder, neither of which showed anything worthy of note. I can't even remember the name of the UM goalie in the ND-UM game: he played OK but nothing that was outstanding. John, in a rare display of affection and bias to to UM, I suspect you wanted Shields; but unfortunately, (perhaps due to the flu that he had,) it just wasn't there. My choice would have been Buzak followed by Ram. Ram's play during the ND-MTU game was not exactly stellar (23 saves). To Ram's credit, he doesn't get much help from his team mates. In a four game series, I don't think that a all series team means much. I agree with their choice for MVP (UM's Oliver). I might suggest three or four other players honorable mention (UM's Wiseman, MTU Peterson and MSU's Suk for acting during the MSU-MTU OT, :-), as well as the game winning goal.) Declaring an "All GLI" team is probably too far fetched. These are my opinions for which I can and probably will be castigated for. :-) Walt Olson
