Player of the Week

Travis St. Denis, Quinnipiac University

(Junior, Forward - Trail, British, Columbia)



St. Denis accounted for four of the seven Quinnipiac goals last weekend, including the game-winner with less than a minute to play against No. 12 Union on the Dutchmen's home ice. He followed his late-game heroics in the Bobcats second-straight win against a ranked opponent with a hat trick in a 3-1 win at ECAC Hockey first-place foe Rensselaer on Saturday night. He was the only skater in ECAC Hockey to score two game-winning goals as the Bobcats ran their winning streak to six games. He was also one of five players nationally to average two goals per game for the week. For the year, St. Denis has six goals and two assists for eight points in nine games.

He also had a game-high four shots with an even plus/minus rating. The next night against No. 20 Quinnipiac, Jared had the primary assist on RPI's only goal, an even strength tally early in the first period. He finished with two shots and a plus-1 rating in the Engineers' 3-1 loss.
