Recruiting Trail: INCH's 2005 All-Name Team

• Top 20 Forwards
• Top 15 Defensemen & Top 10 Goalies
• Top 15 Classes

We've told you who in this year's freshman class will make an impact on the ice. But who, just by their name appearing in a box score, will bring a smile to our faces? Who is prepared to carry the torch previously held by the likes of Spanky Leonard, Reid Goolsby and Jake "Couldn't Cut it in the Mexican League" Taylor?

Make no mistake, a high standard has been set. But we think the members of INCH's 2005 Recruiting All-Name Team might just have the stuff to carry on that legacy. You'll find their names, with comments, below.

2005 RECRUITING ALL-NAME TEAM
Name	School, Pos.
Mathieu Angers-Goulet	Rensselaer, F
What happens when Mathieu runs on stage in the middle of a Vegas show.
Jay Beagle	Alaska Anchorage, F
He doesn’t go to the penalty box. He gets kenneled.
Topher Bevis	Massachusetts, D
“Hey Butthead…heh heh heh…holding the stick...heh heh heh...”
Peter Bogfanich	Colgate, F
Apparently, directing "The Last Picture Show" wasn't enough of a thrill for him.
Spencer Churchill	Canisius, F
Impressed coaching staff during recruiting visit by telling them he has nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat.
Dan Fardig	Michigan, F
He blamed it on the dog.
Bud Fisher	Quinnipiac, G
His name alone isn’t that unique…until you learn he played junior for the Lindsay Muskies.
Jason Garrison	Minnesota Duluth, D
More of a stay-at-home defenseman when compared to his partner on the blue line, Mr. Hat.
Kyle Kucharski	Boston College, F
“For the last time, you’re thinking of Don Koharski…and no, I don’t want a donut!”
Brandon Marino	Bemidji State, F
Ironically, his linemates in junior were named Clayton and Duper.
Derek Punches	Wayne State, F
Not if he wants to stay out of the penalty box.
Josh Sim	Lake Superior State, F
Millions of video game addicts worldwide are vicariously experiencing his exploits through their PCs.
Jimmy Spratt	Bowling Green, G
His pre-game eating habits haven’t been the same since the night he gave up seven goals after downing a chicken fried steak and a bag of pork rinds
Bear Trapp	Sacred Heart, F
'Nuff said.
Andreas Vlassopoulis	Colorado College, F
You may know him as Big Bird's furry, brown friend on "Sesame Street".
Brandon Yip	Boston University, F
He'll beat a goalie on a slapper from the red line, but miss an empty net from the goal mouth.
