AACH!  Be still my heart!  Boring?  One of the greatest college hockey games of all time with two of the best goalies in the nation standing on their heads?  I am stunned.  That game will be talked about for years.  How can any red-blooded hockey fan be bored by that game?
 
Sorry, my friend.  Absolutely disagree.

Its not hockey. People want to see up and down the ice and hitting.
Not systems and neurtal zone traps. The Wisconsin and Cornell game in the
Midwest regional was boring hockey.
