Wallner on McCollum’s milestone-to-be, Great Skate $ totals
Among the Grand Rapids Press's Peter J. Wallner's Griffins notes:
[Tom] McCollum, in his eighth season with the Griffins and ninth overall as a pro, is one win away from becoming the Griffins' all-time leader in wins, surpassing Joey MacDonald's mark of 109. McCollum played two seasons with McDonald early on.
McCollum already is the Griffins' all-time leader in goalie games played, minutes and saves.
This season, he has played in 17 games with a 3.23 GAA and .897 save percentage, though he allowed two goals each of his past three games and is 3-1 his past four.
Also:
The Griffins 2018 Great Skate at Rosa Parks looks to have been one of the most successful. Griffins officials expect the final donation total to be in the range of $37,000 to $40,000. That would make it second or third all-time.
The ninth-annual 34-hour skate-a-thon, featuring appearances from the players benefits the Griffins Youth Foundation.
