Lil Bit Special Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 http://www.collegehockeynews.com/news/2009/11/20_bennetts.php The old adage says, if you love it, let it go -- if it returns it's yours forever. The college hockey world must have some serious emotions for Brett Bennett. The junior goalie, in his first year at Wisconsin, is making a solid, if not yet loud comeback after splashing his way onto the scene at Boston University three years ago. As a highly-touted recruit out of the USNTDP, Bennett posted 16 wins to go with a 2.63 goals against and a less-than-sparkling .888 save percentage after seizing the starting job during his sophomore year for the Terriers. While a successful goalie isn't anything out of the norm on Comm. Ave, the next chapter in Bennett's story took a detour. Following the 2007-08 season, BU issued a statement, saying the team and Bennett were going separate ways; a college hockey divorce, so to speak. BU simply needed better goaltending if it were to compete for a national title -- which it did -- but this also intensified whispers in the community about an attitude problem and clashes beween Bennett and the coaching staff. Whether or not the rumors were true, Bennett refuses to get into specifics about what led to ties being cut. "Boston is a great place," he said. "I enjoyed my time there; I played for a great coach in a great school, great city. It was an unfortunate situation." So why not just go pro? Selected by Phoenix in the fifth round of the 2006 NHL Entry Draft, the thought certainly had to cross Bennett's mind, at least briefly. "It wasn't really an option," he says. "I had to get things together with my game and with my life." So he took both to the Indiana Ice of the USHL, and put his game under the tutelage of coach Jeff Blashill, who was in his first year after leaving Miami, where he was an assistant under Enrico Blasi. Blashill helped pioneer some changes. "It's nice when your head coach used to be a goalie," Bennett laughs. "He taught me good work habits, focus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gainzo Posted November 23, 2009 Author Share Posted November 23, 2009 Why does BU suck so bad this year? Because they lost all their offense and their best defensive player.
