I think you're reacting to an unfortunate choice of words.  I don't
think he was implying that there are some good divisions and some bad
ones ... I think his mouth was just a little bit in front of his brain.

You've said a mouthful there, I couldn't agree with you more.  I'm a
former NHL nut who has all but lost interest in professional hockey.
On the contrary, I saw my first UW Badger hockey game this weekend in
over four years and thoroughly enjoyed it, despite the fact that it was
only a modestly exciting game.  Keep those Badger postings comin' Dave P.
 
BTW:  Any word on [injured Badger] Doug MacDonald?
