The Lincoln Stars blue line was a question mark for head coach Rocky Russo heading into the 2022-23 season. Now they are one of the Stars' biggest bright spots helping Lincoln to a 5-1 record. Opponents have scored just 11 goals against the Stars, best in the USHL, and have allowed the opposition to score just 1.83 goals per game. With the blue line taking shape, Russo said they plan to roll with seven defensemen, with all seven guys finding ice time throughout the season. Massie is currently ranked in third in goals against average (1.00) among USHL-qualified goalies, while Whitehead is 12th with a 2.00.
