I think Wisconsin is just trying to get everyone to commit to them and the pick and choose what players they want believing that other teams will honor the "gentleman's agreement."
If I was Brad I'd tell him that Wisconsin has too many recruits and Denver's coach might not be there when he is set to arrive at Denver. Brad should just give Rizzo the same offer as Ethan.
Murray is the #1 goalie if he wasn't injured to start the playoffs he would have started every game.
I do remember that Vokoun, the backup, got the Penguins to the conference finals. Where was Fleury? Oh that's right he was on the bench.
