That year, he took a team that logged a cumulative record of 27-77-22 in the four years prior to his hire to the ECAC Hockey tournament semifinals. Sure, the Bears backed into the tournament as the 11th seed, but they peaked at the right time, eventually winning the third-place game against St. Lawrence.

Then dynamic skating and speed became all important. Now we’ve entered the age of the goalie, where having a stellar net minder is a basic requirement for success. Brown senior Anthony Borelli came out of nowhere his senior year to lead his team, almost by himself, into the Eastern Collegiate Athletic Conference (ECAC) playoffs with home ice advantage. Across town at Providence College, freshman goalie Jon Gillies put up ludicrous numbers in February, helping Providence stay at the top of the Hockey East conference.
