Actually we have one guy playing in the OHL with is the number one league the NHL draft picks come from, his name is Steve Jensen. He is pretty awesome. He was a freshman here last year on the Div 1 team.

Kevin Rainey (was our goalie back in 02-04) played like 30 min in an OHL game before he came here to LU... i think that fact actually made him ineligible later on in 04 and they had to get a new goalie halfway through the year? he couldve transferred elsewhere to play, but decided to stay here and finish his degree in i think business...
maybe oneof the other hockey guys that played with him can help me out on this...
anywhoos, the rain man was UNREAL in goal... shame yall never go to see him play...

lol..what am i thiking... bloomfield played with him... DUH!
i remember that trip to IU when we made a little detour to Indianapolis Motor Speedway...
Dustin Sleightham got a concussion, Rainey stood on his head in goal, and Smale flattened the ref when he 'happened' to get in the way of Jeff on an end to end rush... (the ref had been making some TERRIBLE calls all game and was actually one of the reasons Dustin got hurt)
