COMMENTS FROM MY PERSPECTIVE:
ALL IN ALL IT WAS A PRETTY DESCENT HOCKEY GAME.  NOTRE DAME IS A HELL OF A
LOT BETTER HOCKEY CLUB THAN THEIR RECORD SHOWS.  THE POOR SPOT IN THE GAME
WAS, AS IT USUALLY IS THE REFEREES.  ON CHRIS BROOKS SECOND GOAL
(SHORTHANDED) THE REFEREE WAS STANDING 20 FT OF THE BOARDS AND GOT TANGLED
WITH A NOTRE DAME DEFENSEMAN CUASING HIM TO LOSE THE PUCK, CHRIS BROOKS
PICKED UP THE PUCK AND BURIED IT HIGH GLOVE.  I REALIZE THIS CAN HAPPEN BUT
THE WORST OF THE STORY STILL REMAINS.  THIS HAPPEND AT THE 14:35 MARK IN THE
SECOND  PERIOD.  FROM THEN ON, THERE WOULD NOT BE A CALL MADE IN WMU'S FAVOR
UNLESS IT WAS UNBELIEVABLY OBVIOUS. AGAIN, I CAN UNDERSTAND THIS. THE THING
THAT CAUSES MY GUT TO ACHE IS THAT WESTERN COULD NOT EVEN BREATHE THE REST OF
THE GAME WITHOUT GETTING A PENALTY.  MY POINT IS THE REFEREE WHO GOT IN THE
WAY WAS THE SAME GUY I TALKED ABOUT LAST NIGHT ABOUT DOING NOTHING BUT GET IN
THE WAY.  BRING BACK THE SECOND LINESMAN CAN THE SECOND REF.  IN CASE YOU
WANT TO CHECK OUT MY OPINION IT WAS ON PASS.
 IN CASE YOU ARE WONDERING CHRIS BROOKS, A BRONCO FRESHMAN IS DEFINATELY A
GOOD HOCKEY PLAYER.
