Many across the country may not have taken notice of Quinnipiac's Bryan Leitch, unless it was for his familiar-sounding name. But Leitch and his teammates are attempting to change that.

You may not know, for example, that Leitch leads the nation in points. Made all the more impressive considering the team's bizarre early-season stretch of getting shut out in three straight games.

"We get asked about that a lot," Leitch said. "Believe me, I don't think I've ever gone three games in a row getting shut out as a team. That was ridiculous. The puck just wasn't going our way. We definitely reaped the rewards against Dartmouth ... we couldn't score against Princeton, and against Dartmouth, pucks were hitting me in the leg, hitting guys in the butts and going in. So it evens out."
