Thought everyone might be interested in the following tidbits....
 
Cornell fans, especially, should note that Phoenix has recalled goalie Parris
Duffus from the minors.  Parris had a great sophomore season, then left Cornell
early, really setting back the team.  I hope he gets a shot to show some
things.
 
Also ... here's the URL of a good story on women's hockey -- specifically,
Providence vs. UNH -- in the New York Times of all places...
 
http://www.nytimes.com/yr/mo/day/news/sports/hkc-women.html
 
 
Finally --- No one else probably noticed. ... but the Philadelphia Daily News
recently named Travis Roy as its Sportsman of the Year.
 
I found this to be very odd.  This is nothing against Travis, and it's a
well-done piece, but the tragedy happened over a year ago, and there have been
other players to suffer similar fates since, just as worthy as the heroism tag.
 
Not to mention that this is a newspaper that NEVER even mentions a college
hockey score. It seemed to me like a big-time ploy to capitalize on tragedy to
make themselves look good.  A grandstand play, if you will.
 
Again no offense to Travis meant at all ... but it just seemed a bit
hypocritical of the Philly Daily News.
 
Any thoughts?
