Fair point, this week is a good week to judge him on his stats with the Four Nations Tournament in Slovakia because he will facing his peers (u-17 event). The fact he has played eight of the nine games the U-17 team has played in the USHL says something.

Three out of the last five games with McNeely in net they have loss by two goals or less. In the 7-2 loss to Cedar Rapids, it was 4-2 going into the third. He hasn't been pulled from any of his games either so I have to assume not every goal is his fault.

Give him time I think the numbers will go down but at the end of the day they will be ugly because how young the team is.

I know I am comparing apples to oranges here but last year I watched Bangor High School defeat Skowhegan 11-4. Skowhegan's goalie was the best player on the ice that night because he kept the game close. I believe it was 4-2 heading into the third but the team was out of gas. He made 59 saves.

Three out of the last five games with McNeely in net they have loss by two goals or less. In the 7-2 loss to Cedar Rapids, it was 4-2 going into the third. He hasn't been pulled from any of his games either so I have to assume not every goal is his fault.

Re: Maine Recruit Updates: The Search for Spock

Hey, Nebraska-Omaha is top 10 in the country.

Ahh, remember the good old days when Maine was ranked top 10 in the country? Good times. :(

But, why would good players want to go to a backwater like Omaha? When they could be in Boston or Minneapolis? You just can't get kids to come to those places stuck way out in the sticks.
