Crowder Named WCHA Co-ROTW

Paul Crowder's three goal weekend (one GWG) vs. UAF was indeed enough to earn him the WCHA's Rookie of the Week award. DU's Rhett Rhakshani shared the award based on his MVP performance with 3 assists against Mercyhurst and UMass-Lowell.

Paul's 8 goals and 8 assists are just the beginning of what he brings to the ice every night. His skating, puck handling skills and great vision create scoring chances where there had been none only a second before. Congrats Paul.

why does it seem like they have to always share the awards with denver??? oh well denver is the wcha darling. Crowder had three goals against a better opponent than mercyhurst or umass-lowell and it was in a rivalry game. Rackashani's three assists just don't stand up, at least on paper.

You have to share the awards with Denver until you beat them once during the season - WCHA Rule 23.b
