Georgia high school students have already...
...unspecified personal reasons, Harvard is left searching for a replacement in the net.But it’s certainly not easy, as Richter was not only a key asset for the Crimson, but also the best goalie in the league. Last season, the Calgary native posted a .923 save percentage and a 2.19 goals-against average in addition to posting three shutouts, two of which came on consecutive nights. Richter received accolades to boot, earning the Ken Dryden Award as the ECAC’s top keeper.But while Richter has left big shoes to fill, Harvard has three promising prospects vying...
