Talk about exiting in style.
Bryan McGregor has indeed saved his best hockey for last as evident by the career-high numbers he's put up this season. In addition to sharing top honors for the team's goal-scoring lead with 14, the senior right wing currently ranks third among his UMD puckmates in scoring with 26 points. A major minutes muncher on both the Bulldog power play and penalty killing units, McGregor currently ranks second in the Western Collegiate Hockey Association in both shorthanded goals (three -- the most by a Bulldog in four years) and shorthanded points.
Quite an improvement for a guy who come into his farewell season with just 21 points in his previous 88 games.
