Let's not get too far ahead of ourselves.  Maine still has to get past
Michigan State, who didn't LOOK that bad last night, from what I could
"SEE" on the radio!

I do agree with Mr. Forsyth on his picking the ...Bears, but Maine is one
of the Eastern teams who hasn't played a game in quite a while.  I think
if MSU can stay within a goal or two by the start of the third period, the
Spartans should have the stamina to pull off the big upset.  One thing that
Coach Walsh has in his favor is the "hindsight" from 1985 when Providence
College absolutely surprised #1 MSU (who Walsh was ass't coach for at the
time) and went on the the finals behind goaltender Chris Terreri.  If
anyone can prepare a team against a let down for a BIG game, Coach Walsh
can.  We shall wait and see!  :-)
