pucking, I also saw both teams play numerous times last year. I would hardly call myself a hockey expert, but I would have called the teams about even with Roseville slightly better. Roseville had more size particularly on defense and better goaltending, while Hill was a little faster and had more guys who could put the puck in the net. If the teams had played it probably would have been a fun game to watch as both teams moved the puck well.<br><br>I really like Mike Dorr, I touted him as an up and coming sophomore. He got knocked around a bit last year, but with a year's growth he should have enough size to withstand the pounding this year and I'm expecting great things from him. In Brian Arrigoni Hill has a player who matches up with Dorr, he's got a nice move where he pulls back the puck that made a lot of guys look bad last year.<br><br>Inflated statistics or not, the fact remains that Hill is returning a lot of productive players, while Roseville lost most of their production from last year. Hill may have questions about their returning goalies, but Phillippi(sp?) has shown flashes of talent and figures to be better with the experience from last year as a freshman. Meanwhile Roseville goes into the season with an unproven, inexperienced goalie. Roseville will not have a lot of seniors on this team so if they do well and Dorr returns for his senior season expectations will be high for next season.<br><br>And that's my last word on this, pucking, I'll wait for the season to prove or disprove my points. Roseville will probably start slow, so I won't jump on you if they get thumped early and frankly I won't take any joy in seeing them get thrashed. <p></p><i></i>
