Wow!  The message came in fast.  Here goes...
 
[RE: Incident in the MSU press box]
Apparently, one of the UM assistant coaches had a few words with Dave Fisher
(CCHA head of officials) regarding the officiating.  Someone from the MSU
staff (neither a coach nor SID) became involved as well.  No biggy.
 Whatever happened was settled in the press box.
 
[RE: Players in the press box]
Apparently (there's that word again), there are no players in the MSU press
box unless they are serving a real purpose, e.g. keeping a shot chart.
 Whether or not any MSU players were in the box on Saturday is irrelevant,
because the UM players didn't need to be there.
 
And, I agree with everyone who messaged me saying that scratched players
have no business in the press box anyway.  Let 'em sit in the stands and
*cheer*.
 
The only good thing that ever came of having a player in the press box is
when Glen Hanlon roughed up the St Louis Blues owner (or GM, whatever) for
cutting down Bob Probert.  I'm kidding, I'm kidding. :-)
 
[RE: Parent's tickets]
Who knows?  I spoke with a couple of fans who made the trip and they said
that their tickets were pretty decent.  At least one of Michigan's players,
and supposedly more, was given standing room only.  I haven't heard anything
further, and don't plan to pursue it.
 
To all that replied, thanks for the info.
