I liked it, I found it much easier to follow the action. I'm wondering
though what the goalies thought of it, being that the game ended 7-6,
and the Moose had only scored 1 goal/game preceding this one.
What I found disappointing about the game is seeing that the St. Paul
Civic Center removed those cool clear boards and replaced them with
the more popular white ones. This way they could add advertising to
the walls....yuck.
