      Lovisa will smash the record. I predicted another Swedish goaltender wanting to follow in the footsteps of Lovisa and joila a Norwegian. Who knew it would be so soon?

        Ena Nystorm is Norwegian, but that is close to Sweden.

          Lovisa Selander has moved into first place in the NCAA in save percentage (.948), second in total saves (727) and first in saves per game (33).

          In the 23 year history of the Patty Kazmaier award three goaltenders have won: Ann-Renee Desbiens (Wisconsin 2017); Jessie Vetter (Wisconsin 2009) and Ali Brewer (Brown 2000). All were great goaltenders, but all had the benefit of playing on dominant teams.

            A better comparison might be someone like Chanda Gunn who finished in the top 3 for the Kaz with a losing record, and a higher goals against and a lower save percentage than Selander has. Mankato's Shari Vogt made the final 10 that year as a goalie for a non-dominant team, although she finished a couple games over .500. It wasn't like there weren't offensive options: Krissy Wendell didn't make the top 3 even though she led Minnesota to the title with 78 points.

            I think Selander should at least make the top 10, but as the years have gone on, IMO the voting has swung more and more toward high-scoring forwards.

              They're even stingier toward defensemen with Ruggiero still the only one winning in 2004. I could be wrong, but I think Megan Bozek is the only other defensemen finalist in 2013. That was a tough year for a defenseman to win.

                Tara Mounsey, Courtney Kennedy, and Ronda Curtin were all D. Lara Stalder two years ago was hard to classify, because she played both F and D at different times.

                  I should have been clearer. I was just referring to the top 3 finalists. So Stalder then, too.

                    Mid-"weekend" update! Taking three points on the road was a perfectly fine outcome (let's not look too closely at how we got the points), but there's no time to rest. We simply have to beat Union on Tuesday. We'll probably make the playoffs regardless, but that's a game we have to win, and hopefully we don't make Lovisa stop another 45 shots to get there.

                    I haven't run the simulations on the effect the coming weekend will have yet, but my gut says that anything more than 1 point will be a net positive. If we dare to dream of a home playoff series, we need to over-perform current expectations by 4 or 5 points, and that would likely start with 3 or 4 points in Central NY.

                            My question is this. RPI woman's hockey team is having one of their best seasons to date. Yes I agree, far from a powerhouse team but exceeding expectations by a long shot. Yet when you look at the attendance numbers at being at the bottom of the pack, it would be somewhat disheartening to the players. Just wondering why other schools support their female hockey programs better than RPI. One would think that since the woman's hockey program is the only div 1 program for female sports at RPI, attendance would be much higher. Just a comment!!

                              Regardless of the program attendance ALWAYS LAGS an improving season. Men's, women's, hockey, football, basketball all follow that trend.
