We have had so many great defenseman over the years. Hard to remember all of them. Last few years with Ladue, Stecher, Tucker and Colton Poolman - we have been lucky to see all of them over the years. I enjoyed the physical guys like McWilliams, Smaby, Greene, Schneider too.

Clark17 Posted March 4, 2020 Posted March 4, 2020 I really enjoyed watching the brothers from Morden, in particular Chay. Maybe gave some up on the back end but man for wheels and skill. 1 Quote

hky Posted March 4, 2020 Posted March 4, 2020 Not a major, but sure liked the embellishment call against WMU last weekend. That's gotta be embarrassing. May be a deterrent to some of the shenanigans you refer to. Quote

SJHovey Posted March 5, 2020 Posted March 5, 2020 I was bored last night so I was just messing around with CHN's pairwise tool that lets you modify game outcomes. If Canisius had swept us again this year, we'd still be #3 in the pairwise. Of course, none of us would still be around to see it. Quote
