Who in the world is in goal tonight and which goalie will face over 40 shots again?

Interestingly Jack still leads the team in assists, even with 10 less games played than most others. No one is really even close yet but Hall.

It's "Sweet 16" time, meaning the NCAA tourney is down to 16 and our Buffalo Sabres' are going for 16 as well (winless)!  Expecting to see our blue and gold shooting "bricks" tonight.
