Defense: A. Like the offense, the defense is first in the ECAC, surrendering only three goals per game and keeping much of the toughest rubber away from the Crimson net. Go-get-'em captain Sean McCann (10-9-19) leads the excellent backchecking of the blue-line corps, but as often as not it's been the forwards' forechecking skills that has kept opposing offenses struggling to cross center...
...prominent nose turns into a knuckle. Yet if Cruise disdains perfection for a roguish humanity, his million-watt smile makes him immediately likable, even swoonworthy.

One does toss through the supposedly sweet idleness with a lump of Calvinist guilt under the mattress; the jauntily go-get-'em "I need some work to do" does conceal, for all its Freudian banality, some sense of unworthiness: you don't deserve the pleasure of a good vacation...
