Coming in, you've got to picture yourself as the No. 1 guy. I think the first weekend of the year I had a good weekend, then we got two big wins against Denver and right off the bat I felt like I belonged.

It would have been nice to get a shutout, but I would take one goal (allowed) every game.
college easter florida frozen hockey huge kid maine ncaa playing remember tournament watched watching weekend
It was a huge factor. Maine is always in the NCAA Tournament. I remember going to Florida for Easter weekend when I was a kid and didn't know what college hockey was all about. I watched Maine play in a Frozen Four. Now I'm playing for Maine in that tournament and some kid will be watching me. That's pretty exciting.

Every forward is the same. There is really not anyone who does anything extremely different from everyone else.
