...other defense in the league—with junior defenseman Alex Biega, who has been named to the ECAC Preseason All-League Team. He helped lead a Harvard power play that converted over 20 percent of its opportunities. McCafferty and Biega will be backed up by junior defensemen Chad Morin and Ian Tallett, sophomore Chris Huxley, and freshman Ryan Grimshaw—who scored the eventual game-winning goal in last weekend’s exhibition game.Perhaps the biggest gap in the defense will be the absence of last year’s goaltender, Kyle Richter...

The walk Pitt gives him, appropriate less for a guest on Dancing with the Stars than for a heretofore unclassified creature on Animal Planet, is the coolest thing in the picture--tied with the portentous percussion in Carter Burwell's underscoring, which in its pile-driving fashion builds suspense that never pays...
