Congratulations are in order for sophomore Tommy Grant for receiving his second WCHA Player of the Week honor so far this season. Tommy's 3 goal and 2 assist performance on the weekend was best among WCHA players. He is currently tied for 1st in overall goal-scoring for WCHA players with Ryan Stoa of Minnesota. From the WCHA release:
One of his two assists came on teammate Pau Crowder’s shorthanded, game-winning goal in the final period. Then last Saturday (Nov. 22) night, in a 4-3 overtime loss to CC, Grant capped off an impressive series with two more goals, tallying a game-tying goal in the second period and then a shorthanded goal at 14:41 of the third that evened the score at 3-3. In addition to his five points, Grant also fired seven shots on goal in the series and earned a +2 plus/minus rating.
With only 7 points (5g, 2a) under his belt as a freshman, Tommy looks to be having a "super-soph" kind of year so far nabbing 10 goals and 7 assists. Good on him. His production is one of the key reasons that UAA has already surpassed last years league points total. Way to go Tommy. You can have both turkey legs for Thanksgiving if you want 'em.

way to go Tommy....see you in Madison
again agree, and agree, great job Tommy, you definitely got a gift and keep it up cause after you stop suiting for the green and gold you will go far
By putting Tommy and Paulie together Coach has created a goal scoring factory! Big ups to Shawn for his scrappy play to feed these guys the puck,
Fabulous news! Enjoy your Thanksgiving Wolves. We are looking forward to Wisconsin.
Three Cheers for Tommy in Iraq... Oley, Oley, Oley!!! I guess how the Iraqi's do it, or is that down south???? :-)
The great thing is....he's only a sophomore. No pressure or anything though.
remember CURTIS GLENCROSS? he was a sophmore when in the final five he got an NHL contract and left so...but your right, a spohmore is excepted to step it up but not as much as seniors and juniors. its really obvious that PAULEY and GRANT have some amazing chemistry, we should ride that wave all the way into the XCEL Energy Center, its too bad cuz there most likely going to be gone next year with there talent, how bout seeing them line up for a faceoff on the same team and line in the "big show"
