I do not believe either the Olympics or the Women's World Championships
will produce an NC$$ Women's Championship.  I think the steady growth of
the women's game, not the hype, will bring a final four (The Puck Stops
Here?).  The numbers of women and girls playing ice hockey in places like
Minnesota and Michigan, as well was the Northeast is the critical
factor.  Only when there is a competitive league in the midwest will that
happen.  I am not so sure, given the Wooger's priorities, how soon that
may be.
