Are you trying to say a Division 1 athlete can't play two games a week? If so, thats sad. What are they going to do when playoffs come and they have to play three games a weekend? Keep rotating all three? I would say they don't play enough games a week. They should play atleast four times a week if possibe just to stay sharp. Playing once a week is tough to do. They should go with one guy until they prove they either can do it, or can't do it.
I will atribute most of the goals given up this year to taking way too many penalties, and I agree "JPar"(as you like to call him) hasn't done too bad. But there is a difference in not doing too bad and being a number one goalie. If you look at Phil's numbers they are pretty damn good, much better than Parise's.
In regards to Brandt. As i recall the '01-'02 season Kollar was a senior, and he had always gotten the job done before so Blaise tried sticking with him. Which was probaly the right thing to do. Now Brandt is the senior. He is second all time at UND in GAA and shutouts, 3rd in save% and 4th in winning%, but where does that leave him?? You would think it would be his job to lose...insted they leave him at home.
And my comparison to the coaches. I think you would agree that Blaise was a pretty alright coach. Hak was head coach in Sioux City, he had them at the bottom of the league. The following year, new coach, they win it all. I mean thats not defining a career, but i don't think anyone would be too proud of that.
