Heh. I wish. :-) Unfortunately, I couldn't make it down to GF this year.
I only saw the report onthe Grand Forks local news. They said that Manitoba
kept it close through the first two periods. The score was 2-1 at some
point in the second, I believe. The Sioux finally pulled away in the
third. (The score they reported was 7-3 for UND.)
 
I'm a little surprised that Manitoba hung as tough as they did. I saw one
of the U of M's games last weekend, and I was not impressed by them.
 
A question for the GF brigade: how good is the quality of the WDAZ Sioux
broadcasts? I see they have a game this weekend, while I'm unfortuately
out of the house. I will more than likely record it, though.
 
See you later,
John
