A couple weeks ago I read somewhere, probably the Globe, that Lane
MacDonald was back in Massachussetts resting a sprained ankle.

Lane would have to have slipped pretty far not to crack that roster
(IMnsHO). My inclination would be to take MacDonald, McEachern, Emma,
and Fusco (probably in that order), send Drury back to Harvard (we need him),
and send Ted Donato to the Maine Mariners. Of course then there's Pat
LaFontaine. Is he a center?
