I still stand behind what I said; and I will extend the citizenship issue
to all students, including grad students.  Being a grad student, I see how
foreign students come here from other countries, get their education, and
go back--this may become a very grave issue for the future  of our nation.
Obviously this probably isn't the case with hockey players.
 
What bothers me is that some young man, whose relatives gave their lives
in military service for this country and whose parents pay taxes that go
to indirectly fund state schools will get passed up all in the name of
capturing a trophy that , in the big picture is not very meaningful.
 
I have more to say, but it will wait as I must step out of the office.
