Amazing !! Rob Madore stops 74 of 77 shots in last win for Chicago Steel of USHL

If Superman was known as the “Man of Steel”, then for the Chicago Steel of the USHL Pittsburgh Hornet Hockey alumni goaltender Rob Madore surely could claim prize to the same title as Rob was named USHL Goaltender of the Week after Madore setting the league-high record for saves in a game, making 74 saves in one game, a 4-3 shootout win over Cedar Rapids (with many of the saves being of the spectacular kind).

It is doubtful that Superman could have played any better than Rob against Cedar Rapids, as stopping 74 of 77 shots during a game in the best junior hockey league in the world is just simply an amazing feat, particularly when many of the saves were of a spectacular kind, and resulted in a .961 save percentage.

Congratulations Rob for helping the Pittsburgh Hornets build upon its tradition of being known as the “goaltending factory” and developer of top caliber goalies to the junior, college and even pro leagues. Additionally, many congrats and kudos must go out to the coaching Rob is receiving with the Chicago Steel that has been so critical in his development and helping him reach these amazing feats of performance. They are one top notch, well run organization that any potential amateur hockey player should have at the top of their preferred list.

Rob is simply just one great kid with a ton of natural athletic talent (including a superb initial stance, cat-like quickness, fantastic lateral movement, lighting quick glove hand, excellent butterfly and blocking techniques down low and strong angle play). Couple this with his mental toughness, maturity and leadership ability and you have a triple threat goaltender and student athlete that would make any NCAA Division 1 college team proud. Way to go Rob, we are all so very proud of you !!
