Season Outlook UMD hockey coach Ralph Romano prefers the term REBUILDING when he talks about prospects for the 1967-68 campaign. Yet the Bulldogs, despite their youthfulness at forward, expect to provide a better balanced scoring punch to go with a veteran defensive corps. Of course, the chief aim is a higher finish in the Western Collegiate Hockey Ass~ciation race in the third season of membership. In 1966-67 the Bulldogs finished ~ixth after occupying the cellar the first season out. Forward is where graduation hurt! Gone are All-American Keith (Huffer) Christiansen (the WCHA scoring leader), his favorite winger Pat Francisco and three other veterans; Bobby Bell, Dick Maertz and Bob Young. Bruce McLeod (5-10, 165, Jr., Ft. Frances, Ont.), second behind Christiansen in WCHA scoring last season, heads the returnees at forward which include center Gary Murphy (5-8, 165, Jr., Bovey) and wings Dick Thompson (6-0, 175, Sr., Baudette), Elroy Froiland (5-9, 160, Sr., Thief River Falls) and Mike Sertich (6-0, 190, Jr., Virginia). Captain Jdl'in McKay (5-11, 175, Sr., Duluth) leads a veteran blue- line crew but will l'l'ot be available until winter quarter. He will be joined by his longtim~ playi~g partner Tom Ahrens (6-0, 165, Sr. , Duluth); Rick Newel1 (5~10; 1'80, Jr., Winnipeg, Man.), the WCHA's top scoring defense- man as a sophomore and Benjie Wolfe (5-10, 192, Jr., Duluth). The leading sophomore forward candidates are center Ron Busniuk (5-11, 180, So., Ft. William, Ont.) and wing Ron Forbes (6-0, 186, So. , Ft. William, Ont.) who were judged in a dead heat for Most Valuable Freshman honors. Other sophomore talent will be supplied by wings Larry Krawchuk (5-9, 155, So., Ft. William, Ont.), Ron Wheele (5-6, 140, So., Pt. Arthur, One.); Dave Farrow (5-10, 165, So., Regina, Sask.) and Bob Tok (5-11, 175, So., Bovey) and defensemen Dan Mahle (6-3, 180, So., International Falls) and Ron Weum, (6-0-, 195, So., International Falls).

Stalock, 32 (7/28/87), posted a 20-11-4 record with a 2.67 goals-against average (GAA), a .910 save percentage (SV%) and four shutouts in 38 games played (36 starts) and became the fifth goaltender in franchise history to record 20 wins in a season. He set career highs in games played, games started, wins, shutouts (ranked T-5th in the NHL), minutes played (2,177), shots against (1,082) and saves (985). Per NHL Stats, the six-foot, 200-pound native of Saint Paul, Minn., is the seventh different Minnesota-born goalie to reach 20-plus wins in a single season. Stalock tied his career best making seven consecutive starts from Feb. 25-March 7, made a season-high 40 saves at San Jose on March 5 and recorded a career-high, four-game win streak Feb. 21-28. The left-glove netminder registered a 26-save shutout in his first start of the season on Oct. 14 at Ottawa, the second time in his career he recorded a shutout in his first start of a single season and became the fourth Minnesota-born goalie in NHL history to do so.

  • A Matter of Inches My Last Fight
    INDEPENDENT PUBLISHERS GROUP A Matter of Inches How I Survived in the Crease and Beyond Clint Malarchuk, Dan Robson Summary No job in the world of sports is as intimidating, exhilarating, and stress­ridden as that of a hockey goaltender.
