See a trend?  When Colby scores, the Terriers win!  That's it!  The thing that really got him this honor was the clutch factor of his goals, with three game winners in the month.

With last night's goal, Colby also became the Terriers leading goal scorer this season, as well as the first Ice Dog to reach double digits for goals.
