No, the difference is only one (Blais) has won a National Championship. (So have
Sauer and Comley since Woog's been at Minnesota).Only one (Woog) has been
suspended by the WCHA for punching a referee during the WCHA playoffs.
Only one (Woog) has been suspended by his school for taking a player's
scholarship and then attempting to buy his silence by leaving $500 in a hat under
his (Woog's) desk.
Sorry if the truth hurts, but only one (Blais) of these two coaches has any
class.
