Re: East Regional: #1 Denver v. #4 RIT; #2 Cornell v. #3 New Hampshire
Players to Watch:
WCHA Player of the Year Goalie Marc Cheverie has been DU's most valuable player all year.
Denver's top Line is Seniors Rhett Rakhshani, Tyler Ruegsegger and Sophomore Joe Colborne; All WCHA 1st Team, 2nd Team and 3rd Team respectively. Rakhshani (Rock) has 50 points this year and Ruegsegger (Ruegs) and Colborne( Big Joe or Jumbo) have 40 each. Colborne was the #1 draft pick of the Boston Bruins in 2008.
Cheverie and Rakhshani are finalists for the Hobey Baker Award.
Sophomore defenseman Patrick Wiercioch was also named 1st Team WCHA and has 25 points this season. He was Ottawa's 2nd round pick in 2008. Defensemen Chris Nutini and William Wrenn have been injured and may or may not be available for the Regionals. Dman John Ryder leads the team in hits.
Freshman Dman Matt Donovan was named to the WCHA All Rookie Team. He also played for gold medal winning Team USA at the World Juniors. He has 21 points this year. Drew Shore is a Freshman forward who actually grew up in Denver. He had 3 assists at the Final Five and has 19 points. Freshman forward Chris Knowlton had an unassisted goal against UND at the Final Five. His older brother, Patrick, plays for Sacred Heart.
Junior Anthony Maiani was injured this weekend and is highly doubtful for the Regionals. He played on the second line with Kyle Ostrow and Jesse Martin.
