Joakim Ryan |
In his first career NCAA game, Ryan netted two goals and added an assist in the Big Red's 5-4 loss to Mercyhurst. And he did all of this... as a defenseman! Hopefully this is a sign of good things to come for Cornell, and for me too, since he's on my fantasy team. Unfortunately, I did not start him, but I will next week. Last year for the Dubuque Fighting Saints (USHL), he scored three goals in 53 games. You think he'll eclipse that mark?
Austin Smith |
Smith has been on a tear to start the season, accumulating 11 points (7g, 4a) in his first seven games. He kept it up this weekend at Niagara with two goals and two assists on the weekend. His big game was on Friday in the Raiders' wild 7-6 overtime victory over the Purple Eagles. He potted a power-play goal early in the second, and scored the game-winner in overtime. Smith added an assist on defenseman Thomas Larkin's power-play goal, and did so again on Saturday night.
Three Star: Jeff Malcolm (Yale)
The junior tendy only saw action in two games last season, but started both games this weekend for the Bulldogs at the Ivy Shootout. He made the most of his early opportunity by leading Yale to a win and a tie. On Friday, he allowed two goals and made 26 saves in a 2-2 with Princeton, and followed that up with a 29 save performance in a 2-1 win over Dartmouth. His current save percentage and goals against average are .948 and 1.44, respectively.
