Coach Pfeifer on Ruff: “Right now I probably am more assertive in my teaching of Troy than any player we have.  I see so much potential in his ability to contribute and we need it yesterday!  Troy has athletic ability and we need him to be a ‘fly around’ type of player with a mixture of football and hockey attitude sprinkled in.  I believe Troy is willing to work at getting this done.”
