    Third string goalie has not been announced. My guess is DU will be possibly bringing in 2 walk-on goalies; one to be the back-up and one to be the 3rd stringer.

    There is no year of rehab. Chambers is saying 6 to 8 months he will be unable to play. Conceivably he could be back by January at the earliest or late in the regular season at the latest. The one thing to keep in mind is that he has to be at 100% before coming back and for his sake erring on the cautious side is probably better. Sam is young as he came to DU a year before he was originally scheduled to arrive. He has a great future and rushing him back too early could cause a setback that would have him out even longer.

    It is time to get behind Adam Murary as next year's starter. At 16 he was considered one of the top goalies in the world for his age group. DU won a huge recruiting war for him. Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan and Colorado College were all vying for his services. I think he just needs to gain some confidence as he has the skills to be a solid college goalie. Hopefully, Derek Lalonde has him working out to sharpen his skills for this great opportunity to step into Sam's skates. He is an upperclassmen now and it will be his time to lead the Pios.

      Turns out that a transfer is unlikely because even D-III players have to sit out a year. Compounding the problem is a lack of scholarship dollars available. Needless to say Killer & Derek will need to pull a rabbit out of the hat.

        My prediction? Adam will be the major Pioneer "surprise" this year.

          I agree, he will be the Metro State Pioneer "surprise" of the year.

            Looks like Brock Trotter is returning to the Montreal Canadiens . I don't speak French so if someone could translate.

              According to Google translator:

              Dynamo Riga has terminated its agreement with forward Brock Trotter, the team reports in the KHL on its website Wednesday.

              The club also says that Trotter has signed a contract with a Canadian organization with which he played from 2007 to 2010.

              Last season, his first in the KHL, Trotter scored 9 goals and 17 assists in 49 games. He played two games in the National Hockey League in 2009-10, now minus-one-1.

              Joined by RDS.ca, the Canadiens refused to confirm the news.

                You remind me of the moron who keeps hitting his head on the wall--because it feels so good when he stops. Are we going to have an entire season of this? Or are you capable of coming up with at least one more adolescent meme to throw into the mix? Really, most of the other hebephrenic CC posters at least provide a little variety.

                  I was going to say the same thing, but DU's goaltending is consistently strong. It seems like every time their stud goalie graduates, some new kid comes in and totally dominates. Whoever their goaltending coach is (not sure which coach he is, because all their assistants are just listed as "assistant coach") must be some sort of evil genius.

                    His name is Derek Lalonde and he looks very much like Dr. Evil. I called him that one time in Duluth and he did not appear to be even slightly amused.

                        Being stuck up here in (BEAUTIFUL) North Park, i can't answer this question - who was the goalie coach before Lalonde? It seems like the strong performance in nets predates his time here, even though it has gotten better under Lalonde. Was it Rico? Is this the Grahame legacy? Anyone with a media guide can answer the first part and anyone with an opinion can chi(/u)mp in on the legacy part of it...
                        And another question from ChrisWCHblog comments about DU handling player's injuries - it doesn't seem to me that the Wiercioch and Brittan cases are similar. My only direct experience is shoveling people into the hospital. Oops i mean "Prehospital Care". I don't have any real experience outside of my own orthopaedic owies in rehab and reconditioning.
                        Gawd i miss DaSwami and his wisdom on these matters. Dis place just ain't da same.

                            Any chance of someone convincing Swami to create a new username so we can enjoy his gems of know-who and know-how?
