This is in reply to Mike M at Apollo's last note. I guess I didn't make the
penalty situation involving the goalie quite clear, so here goes again.

Okay, the West did not play a man short, there was no minor in addition to the
misconduct penalty. However, by placing a different player in the box to sit
for 10 minutes the West did not have the use of that player, and all Schoen did
was watch from the bench. That's why I was confused!!! If he wasn't going to
play, why not serve the penalty himself and not cause the shifting ofplayers
to cover the one who served it for him?(Maybe Olympic rules are different???)
More on the Gold medal game later today or early tomorrow (I promise!) Our
computers are very busy today. Carol W.
