I was at the BU vs. North Dakota game this past Friday.  It was a wonderful
moment when we raised the championship banners and scored a quick goal to
start off the season, but the celebration came to a quick halt after that.  I
was in the first row of Section 7 leaning against the boards when I saw Travis
Roy's tragic accident.  It was literally 15 feet in front of me, and I cannot
tell you guys how devestating and horrific it was to watch.  When we all saw
him lying on the ice and not moving, our hearts dropped.  Seeing everyone on
Hockey-L writing all those wonderful comments and sending their prayers and
wishes has been incredibly touching and respectful.  I know it is a difficult
time for his family and friends, but with the support from the BU fans and
fans nationwide, I'm hopeful things work out for him in the end.
 
Sincerely,
Steven Rosenhaus
