Just to add to Derek and Glen's comments (with which I
agree, even if they came from MSU fans! :-)...
This was overall the most exciting GLI in several years, because all
of the games were close. I'm pleased to hear that Fox had such wide
coverage, because I think the tournament provided an *excellent*
view of what college hockey is all about, and hopefully some people
who've never seen "our sport" before were able to enjoy it.
That said -- congrats to Michigan State. The Spartans simply outplayed
Michigan Tech and Michigan, and deserve the title. I fully expect that
I'll be seeing them again in Boston for the Phrozen Phour.

I certainly didn't see any other games involving ECAC teams this weekend,
but I think this is an excellent choice. I'm sure that playing in front of a
"home crowd" helps (for anyone that doesn't know, Plymouth is a suburb
of Detroit), but Eric's play really impressed me. I haven't followed the
Saints this year, but they played far better hockey than I would have
expected from their record. Just a little more development as a team,
and the rest of the ECAC better watch out at tournament time.
