Michigan hockey player Dennis May's chances of playing
professional hockey next year depend upon his team's play-
if the Wolverines do well, he just might make it.
"I need to have a big year this year, but more important I"
need to help the team have a big year," said the senior right
winger. "There are those players, such as (Ted) Speers, who
can rely almost solely upon their own talents. The job for
players such as myself is not how many goals I can score
myself, but how many I can help the team score. If the team
does well it will enhance everyone's chances, including my
own."
MAY, WHO HAILS from Calgary, Alberta, has a
reputation among his teammates for being a hard-nosed
player. Last season, May tied for fifth place on the team in
overall scoring with 15 goals, as well as chalking up 21
assists.
This year, May is off to a good start. In last Saturday's 5-3
win over Toronto, he netted goals in both the second and third
periods.
The Wolverine icers, with their 4-0 season record, have also
bolted out of the gate strongly. The Wolverines currently lead
the Central Collegiate Hockey Association and are ranked
third nationally in the WMPL Hockey Poll.
DESPITE THIS, May said he is not totally satisfied with
either his performance or the team's this season.
''We all have a long way to go," explained May. "I'd like to
see more goals for myself in the future. I want to, most of all,
play a consistently strong hustling game. Hustling is my
strong point. I think my hustling can contribute as much to
the team as Speers' scoring. I want to use my forechecking
and hustling ability to help set up scoring opportunities for
(Don) Krussman or whoever's playing the line. I guess it's
just an added bonus if I score one myself."
The veteran winger feels that the Wolverines' undefeated
mark means they have to work harder.
"NOW THAT we're at 4-0, everyone is going to be psyched
to knock us off," he said. "We've got to work even harder to
stay at the top. It is never easy playing for Michigan because
you're the big school, and beating us means a lot to many
schools. And now it's going to be even tougher."
May is intent upon helping build a strong team this year
because for him, "this is the year which really counts" if he
is to go on to play professional hockey-something which he
says has always been his goal.
"It's been my ambition all of my life to play professional
hockey somewhere," he said. "If the opportunity to play ever
presents itself, I'll grab it."
MAY WENT ON to explain that a professional hockey
career is not his sole ambition. "I came to college because I
realized that hockey is not something I'll be able to do
forever," he said. "I wanted to have a degree to come back
to. If I don't go on to play professionally, I want to come back
to Michigan and take some more geology classes, and later
work back in Calgary."
May said that he feels the icers' success so far this season
can be attributed to coach John Giordano's disciplined
coaching style. "It's work, work, work, in practice and you
hate it while you're doing it," said May. "But you keep doing
it because you know that it's the way to win games."
And winning games may be the one thing that can keep
May playing after he leaves Michigan.
