hey, how's all those great college hockey fans out there!!!
 
------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
let's raise a few questions about the game?
 
1. how do you feel about the two ref system?  i think it's great, as
long as they don't get caught up will calling every thing that happens
behind the play.
 
2. Who feels that fighting should be allowed in the game?  i am biased
in this answer because i love physical, bump-and grind hockey.  there
was a game however here at northern michigan where greg hadden, a small
package that packes a hell of a hit, was basically wrestling with a
wisconsin badger at center ice and the ref through them both out of the
game.  And i saw later that night in highlighs a brawl break out in a
hockey east game and only roughing pentalies were handed out.
 
3.  who's the favorites for the national champanship or final four?
 
here's my picks for whatever there worth-------------- ccha-michigan
wcha-wisconsin hockey east-maine (really went out on a limb for this
one, eh!) independent-alaska-fairbanks has an outside shot.
 
4. How about a hobey baker winner?
 
got to be down to just a few.  the ones i am familier with greg johnson
with n. dakota and andrew shier with wisconsin. fill me in on others
please!!!!!!!!!
oh, yeah i almost forgot about cam stewart with michigan--i feel one of
the most underrated in college hockey

p.s. i heard a great quote "hockey is a delicate mix between the ballet
and murder"
