Looks like Ford got his mojo back once he got out from under Eaves.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Former Wisconsin Badgers men's hockey forward Matthew Ford's early-season scoring binge has earned him a tryout with the AHL's Hartford WolfPack.<BR/><BR/>Ford had six goals and nine points in five games for the ECHL's Charlotte Checkers, emerging from the checking role he played in a four-year collegiate career that ended last season.<BR/><BR/>He was recently featured on NHL.com, and in the story, he talked about the change.<BR/><BR/><BR/>"It's just getting a fresh start and a change of scenery. I kind of got into a role there. I had some great coaching, but I kind of had a different role when I was playing at Wisconsin. The opportunity presented itself here and I have the chance to play a different style."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
