ADRIAN, Mich. -- The Northern Collegiate Hockey Association (NCHA) has announced its men's hockey 3 Stars of the Week for games played February 13-14.
Nikita Borodaenko, F, Sr., Dubuque
Borodaenko was a relentless force for the Spartans' offense during a high-octane series against Aurora. The Dmitrov, Russia, native registered six points (4G, 2A) over the two-game stretch. On Friday, he played a hand in all of Dubuque's four goals, netting two himself. He followed that performance with another two-goal effort on Saturday, including the game-opening goal that helped the Spartans push the nationally-ranked Spartans to the brink in an eventual 5-4 overtime thriller.
Hunter Garvey, GK, Jr., St. Norbert
Garvey was nearly impenetrable in net, leading the Green Knights to a home-and-home sweep of Lawrence. The San Diego, Calif., native allowed only two goals on the weekend while backstopping St. Norbert to six crucial points in the standings. After making 17 saves to secure a comeback win on Friday, Garvey turned in a flawless performance on Saturday night. He stopped all 22 shots faced to earn his third shutout of the season, finishing the weekend with a .951 save percentage.
Ryan Gingher, F, Fr., St. Norbert
Gingher provided a consistent spark for the Green Knights' attack, totaling four points (1G, 3A) in the series sweep of Lawrence. The Dublin, Ohio, native was a primary playmaker in Friday's 5-2 victory, recording a career-high three assists. He carried that momentum into Saturday's contest, scoring the game-opening goal just 3:26 into the first period. Gingher’s early strike stood as the game-winner, marking his first collegiate game-winning goal and helping St. Norbert maintain its momentum heading into the postseason.
