. Having earned a reputation as one of the best young goalies in the Commonwealth, he continued his strong season in the Broncos’ win versus Cooper.
As usual, the 6’3 keeper was able to use his great size and frame to his advantage as the opposing offense has trouble getting anything past him. The Hart-anchored defense held Cooper, who has averaged nearly 10 goals per game, to its second-lowest goal total on the year. Their lowest also came to the Broncos in an early season 16-3 contest. Hart helped hold Cooper off the board for the entirety of the first quarter and allowed just one goal the entire second half. He was on-brand once more, being especially tough for the opposing offense to beat low.

Standing 6’3 and 185 pounds, Hart has a great frame and takes up a lot of space in between the pipes. Having posted a 64% save percentage on the season thus far, he continued his stellar play on Monday night as he was locked in from start to finish. Facing a Ballard offense that can sling it from anywhere, he stood tall for 16 saves. He was particular hard for the Bruins to beat low. What sets Hart apart is his ability to play outside the cage as he makes good decisions in the clearing game and has the ability to take across the midline himself if needed.
