For Hockey East:
   Player of the Year: Scott (?) Pellegrin, Maine forward and Captian
   Coach of the Year: Jack Parker, Boston University
   There's also Rookie of the Year and the Ceglarski Award, however I
     can't remember who won those two.  I'm sure others will give the
     full details.
 
For the ECAC:
    Player of the Year: Daniel Laperriere, St. Lawrence defenseman with
       8 goals and 42 assists.  A lot of forwards would be happy with
       50 points.
    Coach of the Year: Tim Taylor, Yale
    Rookie of the Year: Christian Soucy, goalie Vermont (They spelled his
       name right Bill :-) )
 
I saw the whole UMO-BC game last night and bits and pieces of the UNH-PC
game on TV last night.  Wow!  Maine looked incredibly good.  Their
forwards have so much talent and ability.  With the solid defense and
goal tending, they should be unstoppable.  I haven't seen Minnesota or
Michigan, but if they're just as good, the NC$$ Phinal Phour should be
incredible.  I making an assumption here of course, but a good one.
Scot Lagrand really kept the score as low as super-humanly possible.
Even if BU thought that they should have been there, it really wouldn't
have made too much of a difference.
 
Tonight's Clarkson-Cornell game should be very good.  The teams, bands
and fans should make for a great game and TV show.  The UMO and BC fans
were pretty lame.  The early start probably didn't help.
 
A lot of the local people are hoping for another North Country final.
It would be the third in about 6 years.  The Clarkson fans are really
hoping for it so the team can pay St. Lawrence back when it really
counts.
