Some tidbits from today's (1/13/94) Star-Tribune:
 
From the "Briefly" section, which has the blanket attribution "From News
Services":
 
Otto Breitenbach announced his resignation as Western Collegiate Hockey
Association commissioner, effective July 1.
 
And from the "Minnesota scene" section:
 
Gophers sophomore defenseman Charlie Wasley will undergo arthroscopic surgery
today to determine the extent of a knee injury he suffered in Sunday's 4-3
hockey victory over Wisconsin.  He will miss this weekend's games against
Michigan Tech.
<end quoted stuff>
Just what the Gophers need, ANOTHER injury, and to a defenseman, too.  I haven't
heard anything, but I assume (well, no, I hope) the injury that kept Chris
McAlpine out of the Sunday game (and much of the Saturday game) against
Wisconsin won't keep him out of this weekend's series.
 
Here's another college hockey note from the "Minnesota scene" section:
 
Ferris State University defenseman John Gruden, of Hastings, scored four goals
during a 10-6 victory at Notre Dame on Tuesday.  The four goals tied the NCAA
record for goals in a game by a defenseman, set by Western Michigan's Wayne
Gagne in 1985.  Gruden also tied school records for goals in a game, points in a
game (seven) and points in a period (five).
