> Marc Robitaille is a good example. He gets lit up by UNH, and then stops 80 > of 85 shots on goal (there you go Wayne! :-) against Maine. > Robitaille was also pretty good in Northeastern's upset of Michigan State a couple weeks back. In fact, goaltending was the difference in that game, although primarily because MSU's was so weak. I wouldn't focus too much on the UNH games to evaluate Robitaille. He's playing on a very young team that's going to have its ups and downs. When a "down" comes against a team with as much firepower as UNH has, a goaltender can be left out high and dry. This was the case in the first game against UNH when it was still a 2-2 game into the third period, partly because Robitaille made some great breakaway stops. I didn't see the other game against UNH. Robitaille is going to be a very good on in this league. ----------------------------------------------- Dave Hendrickson [log in to unmask] Hockey East writer for US College Hockey Online http://www.uscollegehockey.com
