Throughout its struggles in the month of January, BGSU hockey did a lot of soul searching to find quick fixes. One of those remedies was playing freshman Garrett Daly, a defenseman, at forward. Thrown in because of injuries, Daly’s consistent play up front may turn into a long term change.
Daly, from Lakeville, Minnesota, found his way into the Bowling Green program because of his defensive acumen. Playing on the blueline for Lakeville North High School and in the BCHL for the Langley Rivermen, he was recruited by then assistant coach and defense specialist Ty Eigner.
Coming into the program this year, Daly was bound to fight for ice time.
