Shibrowski to Colorado College....This Season!!

It appears that Express goalie Mike Shibrowski will be leaving the team after Christmas. He will be joining the Colorado College Tigers of the WCHA. Read the article here: http://cchockey.freedomblogging.com/2009/12/17/tigers-will-add-another-goalie-after-break/5255/ .

My take: I didn't see this one coming. Obviously, this is a great opportunity for Mike, and another name to add to the impressive list of of Express alumni playing Division 1 hockey. However, this leaves the Express (once again) looking for a goalie mid-season. Shibby was a great find by the Express this summer, and his play this season made us forget about losing Freddie Bergman to Division 1 UNO right before the season started.

Looks like it is time for Coach Cullen to pull another rabbit out of his hat, and find a stud goalie. (which he might have already done with last week's addition of Michael Webb).

See you at the rink.
