The lonely life of a Huskies goalie...

I've said it before, and I'm sure I'll say it again:  These Huskies are one of the best teams out there, solid team players with plenty of technique.  They're not afraid to give and take, and they're willing to focus on victory every time, instinctively. They're as good as it gets at this level.
