BIO: Along with Scooby and Dave Matthews, Harris
is one of the original Pirates who played on all three surfaces (Wall, Belmar
and Eatontown). He has been backstopping the Pirates since their inception
into the league and he not-so-fondly remembers the weekly trouncings they
experienced during their first seasons. More recently, however, Harris has
seen the team become a playoff force and he has been in net for all six Pirate
League Championships. Like Martin Brodeur, Harris is known for his stickhandling
ability and he has also been likened to Islanders great Billy Smith
for his ability to take it up a notch during big games.
MOST INFLUENCED BY:
Vladislav Tretiak, Ken Dryden and Patrick Roy.
QUOTE: My fathers early goaltending advice
