I've been a little harsh on the lax factor guy, but it is very nice to have this video.  A couple things I noticed from the video:
Brendan Curry has a new underhand shot.  Hopefully he can hit the cage with it and he mixes it up with an over hand shot.  I like that he added something to his game.  I mentioned last season that he should've taken a page from Trimboli's book and gone back to an overhand shot, because he was missing the cage a lot.

Defense will be different without Bomberry and Cunningham.  Both guys were good about being in the right place and Bomberry was great knocking down and deflecting passes.  Can Staats get healthy and provide that ability?  Can Murphy do some of that?  If not, maybe keep him at SSDM.

SSDM was (hopefully) not what it will look like in the spring.  Hopefully Barlow is healthy in the spring and hopefully SU decides to keep Helmer at SSDM unless he's by far our 2nd best close defenseman after Mellen.  Last season SU ran 4 SSDMs and Small was 4.5.  They need that many with the pace of the game.  If SU takes Murphy and Helmer from SSDM, that position is much weaker.  SU needs some long sticks to step up so they don't need both those guys at close defense.
