Well, I guess our goalie recruiting is done for the next couple of years. :) When current Maine assistant Grant Standbrook was at Wisconsin, he had a reputation as an excellent recruiter and may have been instrumental in bringing in goaltending talent (I don't recall what year he left UW). It seems as though he may be doing the same at Maine (Snow, Dunham). Bill Howard (CC alum under Badger Bob) has been the reason why many of the goalies at Wisconsin have achieved such success after coming to the Badgers. Unfortunately, the current 3 ex-Badger goalies in the NHL (Richter, Joseph, Carey) have stayed at Wisconsin for an average of 1.67 years (if my memory serves me correctly, Richter was a Badger for only 2 years, but it may have been 3). The unfortunate thing about such success in goal is that this kind of talent rarely hangs around for more than 2 years and you're left with a big hole to fill. Former Badger and ex-Hobey Baker candidate Duane Derksen was a freshman the same year as Curtis Joseph and may never have seen the light of day if Joseph had hung around for 4 years. On a slightly different goalie topic. . . .what does the emergence of Tom Noble at BU mean for J.P. McKersie next year? How is his rehab coming along and does coach Parker still expect that McKersie will be able to return to the nets? If he does, and if he were able to perform at or near his former level, would BU be looking at a rotating goalie system again? Chuck ON WISCONSIN!!!
