Regarding Tyler Cyr and Scott Lauder's comments on Tom Noble, I agree that he has come up with some great saves this year. He's playing better than anyone can expect of a sophomore placed into the number one goalie slot of the defending national champions. He played PHENOMINALLY versus Lake State in last year's NCAA quarterfinals (it was the quarters, wasn't it?). Placed into that situation at that age, I would have been huddled in the fetal position on the bench with wet pants. That said, I CRINGE every time he tries either to move the puck himself or tie it up. It seems he doesn't get beaten cleanly with a hard shot very often, he loses it in trying to get a whistle and someone pokes it in, or goes to stickhandle it or catch it behind the net and loses it to an opposing player. I think that this is where Bill Berglund needs to put in the additional time with Tom. Of course, he's still got two and a half years eligibility to work with him. As I said, he's probably the top sophomore goalie in the country (I'm not trying to start anymore controversy or debates on this matter on the list). What do you guys and gals think? Peter Dankens BU '84 P.S. Any truth to the rumor reported in last week's Boston Globe that Jack Parker will bring in Steve Cedorchuk to replace Blaise McDonald when he leaves in January. I'd love to see Cedor recruiting for the Terriers!!! HOCKEY-L is for discussion of college ice hockey; send information to [log in to unmask], The College Hockey Information List.
