Two of the three goals in Minnesota freshman Kyle Okposo's first collegiate hat trick last Saturday were scored with the forward snapping wrist shots over Colorado College goalie Drew O'Connell's glove hand and into the upper right corner of the net. That got us wondering why Okposo picked that spot, so INCH asked him after the game. With a bit of a guilty smirk, Okposo admitted that he'd worked with O'Connell at a goalie camp over the summer and had made a mental note that high glove was the best place to shoot on the Tigers' backup.
