NCAA

Name	Pos	DOB	AGE	School	GP	G	A	P	PPG	+/-	S	S/G	Sh%	PIM	NHLe
Patrick McNally	D	12/4/1991	23	ECAC / Harvard	15	4	12	16	1.07	14	40	2.67	10.00%	6	36
Ben Hutton	D	4/20/1993	21	Hockey East / Maine	28	5	9	14	0.50	-9	79	2.82	6.33%	8	17
Joseph LaBate	F	4/16/1993	21	Big 10 / Wisconsin	22	5	8	13	0.59	-12	57	2.59	8.77%	36	20

Mike Williamson	D	9/5/1993	21	Big 10 / Penn State	10	0	1	1	0.10	-1	12	1.20	0.00%	8	3

Patrick McNally has
hurt his leg and will not play in a game again this season. He does have a year left of eligibility and
may return to the NCAA for a 5th year, but that does not bode well
for his chances of NHL success.
Ben Hutton played in 2 games this week and notched 9 shots
on goal and a -2. Hutton posts a team 3rd
worst +/-, suggesting a possible low on-ice PDO this year.
Joseph LaBate played in 2 games scoring 1 goal and 1 assist,
earning 9 shots on goal and a +1.
Matthew Beattie has not played for another week – he is most
likely injured but I cannot find any sources confirming this.
No games for Mike Williamson again this week – he is likely
injured, but equally like to have been a healthy scratch.

saves good for a .920 save percentage.
Demko is sitting at a .928 save percentage on the year good for 16th
in the NCAA.
