8$,- The Michigan Daily - SPORTSMonday - November 10, 1997 w IL CTContinued from Page 18 Berenson said. Michigan struggled to generate offense, posting only 22 shots on goal. "Northern checked well and worked hard," Berenson said. "I thought were on top of us for most of the night. We never really generated a lot of offense." Michigan's best scoring opportunity came five-and-a-half minutes into the second period, when Bill Muckalt broke in alone on Northern goaltender Duane Hoey. Muckalt tried to beat Hoey up high, but his wrist shot missed, grazing the top of the cross bar. "We had a couple of chances to bury the puck, and we didn't do it," Michigan forward Dale Rominski said. One reason for Michigan's scoring dif- ficulties was its performance on the power play. It went 0-6 with only three shots with the man advantage. On Friday night, however, the Wolverines made good on their chances, scoring five goals, including three power play tallies. The biggest goal of the game came just two seconds after a Northern penalty expired. Twenty seconds into the third period, Muckalt slammed a Josh Langfeld rebound into the open side of the net to give the Wolverines a 4-3 lead. "It was 3-3 going into the third period, so the next goal was a huge goal," Berenson said. Turco s 100th win not soiled by loss MALLORY SE. FLOYD/Da Iy Greg Crozier and the Michigan hockey team split the weekend series with Northern Michigan, 5-3 and 0-1. Four minutes later, Bobby Hayes added a short-handed tally, giving the Wolverines a 5-3 victory. The victory was Turco's 100th, making him the second goaltender in NCAA history with 100 wins. Former Wolverine Steve Shields holds the NCAA record with 112 wins. The Wildcats pressured Michigan from the start, taking an early 1-0 lead when Brad Frattaroli scored on a break- away six minutes into the game. But the Wolverines evened the score at 1-1 five minutes later on a power play goal by Mike Van Ryn. "We knew they would come after us and they did" Berenson said. "They were right on top of us from the start." After Frattaroli's second goal gave Northern a 2-1 lead in the second period, Michigan answered with power play goals by Mark Kosick and Chris Fox. Northern's Mike Sandbeck then tied the game at three going into the third period. "We won three games on the road," Rominski said. "It would have been nice to finish out with four, but they pulled one out in the end." By Chris Farah Daily Sports Writer MARQUETTE - The paradox. Many elements of life boil down to statements that seem to contradict them- selves. Without law, there can be no freedom. You're damned if you do, damned if you don't. Marty Turco is goaltender for the Michigan hockey team. As plain as it may seem, the last state- ment is one of the most complicated paradoxes in hockey. Think about it. No member' of a hockey team relies more com- pletely on the t4 support of his teammates asr does a goal- tender - to clear the puck from the zone and to prevent odd-man rushes, just to name a couple of duties. But at the same time, no one bears more individual responsibility for his team's success. When it comes down to it, the goalie is the last thing between opponents and the net. When a puck gets through, the goalie ultimately has nobody to look at but himself. Turco faced both extremes of the goalie's paradox this weekend when the Wolverines split a two-game series at Northern Michigan. In both games, Turco played phenom- enally, giving the type of performance his teammates, fans and the opposition have come to expect from the senior. During Friday night's 5-3 victory over the Wildcats, Turco had 21 saves en route to his 100th career win, placing him second behind Steve Shields (112) for Michigan career victories. It was definitely a team win for Michigan - Turco would be the last to say it wasn't. But as goaltender - as the anchor of his team - the victory held more significance for Turco. All night long, Turco had been chal- lenged by the Wildcats. The three shots that got by Turco were the result f Michigan defensive breakdowns. Turco put up a solid performance, and Northern couldn't take his 100th win away from him. He knew that Michigan's defensive inexperience would give up some plays, but he also knew it was his responsibility - his job - to stop the puck, to get the win. lis 100th, no mat- ter what kind of situation he faced. After the game, Turco gave the game puck and his stick to his parents. T'y were his to give. A goalie relies or ,s teammates, but the 'W' goes under his name, as well as that of his team. Then there's the other side of the coin. The loss as opposed to the win; Saturday night as opposed to Friday night. In Saturday's 1-0 loss to Northern, Turco had a better performance than he did on Friday, stopping 21 of 22 shots. But the Wolverines had given Northern many opportunities, and it ks only a matter of time before the Wil es capitalized. Michigan, with its lack of offensive production, squandered a great game by Turco. Turco faced the other side of the para- dox. In his mind, it's his job to stop puck, and it's his job to make sure that Michigan wins. When Michigan doesn't win - even if he does his part - it's not enough for Turco. When it comes down to it, even more than his impressive 100 career vict s is the way Turco handles the goaltender's paradox that truly marks his success. He expects the best from his teammates because only a combined effort can win games. But he expects more than the best from himself, because he's the team's last defense, and ultimately - win or lose - it all rests on his shoulders.
